A process for packaging a product, particularly one with sharp protrusions such as cuts of meat, a composition for cushioning the sharp protrusions during packaging and shipping and a foamed material prepared therefrom, the process including the steps of applying a foamed composition to the product to be packaged, and encasing the product in an outer package. The foamed material can be applied in liquid or semi-liquid form at a point-of-contact temperature less than about 130 DEG F with solidification occuring substantially on contact. The foamed material is, preferably, applied selectively to cover the sharp protrusions and contains a chemical substrate which includes a polymer selected from the group consisting of polyethylene, ethylene vinyl acetate and mixtures thereof, an aliphatic hydrocarbon and an antioxidant stabilizer. A suitable gas is encapsulated within the chemical substrate. |
