Sausage cardboard
A small rectangular plate made of cardboard is called sausage cardboard and is used to serve a fried or heated sausage such as bratwurst , bockwurst or wiener sausage or the like.
Sausage cardboard is a smaller variant of the paper plate and also an alternative to serving or consuming the sausage etc. directly in the bread , which is more common in some regions. When serving on sausage cardboard, a - often smaller - bun or a slice of gray or toasted bread is usually served as an accompaniment to the sausage, often also a "dollop" of mustard .
The variant "with tear-off", in which a small piece of cardboard can be torn off at a predetermined breaking point / perforation , is used to avoid getting your fingers dirty or burned when consuming the food . Alternatively, pre-cut cardboard strips are used as "sausage catchers", which are available in stores as accessories for sausage cardboard. The simplest form of "finger protection" when serving on sausage cardboard is usually a half-cut and partially sliced roll or a "folded" slice of bread.
Sausage cardboard is mostly used as disposable tableware in the catering sector , in particular at snack bars and sausage stands , in beer gardens and festival tents, etc. or at events, and sometimes also in system catering or in the fast food segment and in other out-of-home sales. But they can also be found in the leisure and private sector, for example at parties with many people to street parties or when barbecuing in the open etc.
