- Land O' Lakes Egg Carton, 2008 - In the early 2000s, Americans concerned about the healthfulness of food and the treatment of the animals that provided it were willing to pay more for "all natural" products. The eggs in this carton were laid by hens fed with antibiotic-free feed. The "cage free" label implied they were raised in open environments, a misrepresentation of conditions on large-scale egg farms.

Milk Carton Blank, 1936
- Foremost Dairies, Inc. Orangeade Carton - The quest for a shatter-proof milk container prompted John Van Wormer to patent a paper carton in 1915. Many processors and distributors continued to use breakable glass bottles, but, after 1937, mechanized production made the disposable, wax-coated folded cartons inexpensive and indispensable liquid containers. The iconic design, a box with a gable-end top with a pouring or drinking spout, remains the industry standard today.
