A synthetic polymeric food tray having a surface with a pebbled texture, the indentations in the texture being at least 75 micrometers deep, the distances from the center of one pebble to another adjacent pebble being from 0.5 to 3.0 mm, and the surfaces of the pebbles being parallel to the general contour of the surface of the tray in the vicinity of the pebble being substantially flat or slightly rounded, exhibits reduced swarf formation. |
