          Application 08/288,574                                                      


               Appellant’s invention pertains to a packaging envelope for             
          the packaging of formable meat, in combination with formable                
          meat.  A basic understanding of the invention can be derived from           
          a reading of exemplary claim 1, a copy of which appears infra.              


               As evidence of anticipation and obviousness, the examiner              
          has applied the document specified below:                                   
          Korlatzki et al          4,123,589           Oct. 31, 1978                  
          (Korlatzki)

               Claims 1 through 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 15 through 24, 26, 28, and            
          29 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as being anticipated             
          by Korlatzki.                                                               


               Claims 5, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, and 27 stand rejected under
