A multi-compartment package attachment apparatus and method for coupling a
plurality of items with a package, for example a food package. Printed
items such as marketing materials or promotional flyers may be inserted
into a first compartment while condiments, napkins, hand-wipes or
utensils may be inserted into one or more other compartments. The
apparatus may then be fixedly coupled with another package and may also
cover or hold prizes for example. One or more compartments may comprise
thermal protective layers to keep condiments from melting when hot food
packages are stacked. Thermochromic materials may be used to show
temperatures of items in compartments. Each compartment may utilize any
technique for enclosing an item. Embodiments may be constructed from
materials that allow underlying package branding to be visible when the
embodiment is coupled with the package or may be coupled to an area of a
package not covering existing branding.
