A multi-compartment microwaveable food container and, in particular, a
microwaveable container having at least two compartments with different
degrees of shielding to provide different energy inputs to food products
contained therein while being heated in a microwave together at the same
settings. At least one compartment of the container contains an in-mold
label or other type of shielding with microwave-reflective areas to
provide the desired shielding properties to the food product contained
therein. Additionally, a lid component can also contain an in-mold label
or other type of shielding to provide further shielding of the
compartment. The two or more food compartments may contain various
degrees of shielding provided by complete or partial in-mold labels or
other types of shielding.
