Common shapes include rectangular trays and oval platters; some listings explicitly describe items as rectangle-shaped trays or oval-shaped platters.
Pack sizes vary widely; common quantities shown in listings range from small sets of about 12 pieces up to bulk packs of around 120 pieces.
Listings show they support a wide range of foods, including nachos, hot dogs, French fries, burgers, fruit kabobs, chicken tenders, sliders, chips and dip, desserts, appetizers, cookies, fruits, and vegetables.
Listings indicate two main material types: paper (including paperboard food boats) and plastic.
Many listings instruct users to "Discard After Using" or say you can "just toss in the trash." Some plastic trays are described as recyclable or noted as handwashable for reuse.
Paper food boats are often described as grease-resistant, leak-resistant, or having a leak-proof interior coating; some paper platters are also described as grease- and cut-resistant or soak-proof.
