The present invention relates to food delivery packaging (10) for delivery perishable fruit and vegetables through a postal delivery system. An impermeable punnet (12) is loaded with harvested fruit and/or vegetables that are prepared for eating and which, in the course of transit, are likely to produce moisture or exudates. A protective film lid (24) is sealed over the punnet (12), which film lid (24) includes perforations and typically micro-perforations (30) located in at least one region (28) of the film (24). A secondary sleeve or cover (30) includes an absorbent pad (40). When the sleeve (40) or cover, which is separate to the film lid, is located over the punnet, the absorbent pad (40) comes into close mating contact and alignment with the region (28) of the film (24) containing the perforations (30). The absorbent pad (40) therefore acts to absorb moisture and exudes that escape from the punnet during postal transit, while also ensuring breathability for the fruit and vegetables sealed within the punnet (10, 12).
