Abstract
A french fry scoop formed from a unitary blank of paperboard is provided with generally horizontally extending lower legs. The legs extend tangentially from the lower edges of the scoop and permit the filled scoop to be placed on a horizontal surface in slightly tilted, stable equilibrium. The scoop displays both economy in paperboard required and a pleasing rest position from which the consumer can withdraw product.
