Abstract
An indicia tab construction for a paperboard food wrapper or container. In one embodiment a peripheral indicia tab is foldable about a lateral axis to assume one of two configurations, and is held in a folded configuration by a cohesive layer. In a second embodiment each of a plurality of peripheral indicia tabs is foldable about respective aligned axes and is also held in folded configurations by respective cohesive layers. In a third embodiment one or more foldable indicia tabs are attached to the periphery of one half of a foldable food wrapper, each tab provided with a legend or other indicia normally viewable. These tabs may be, selectively, folded so as to uncover other legends or indicia, normally covered, on the other wrapper half.
