I'm old enough to have eaten burgers out of styro boxes, and IMHO it's not one of the things I get nostalgic over. They held heat a little bit longer than cardboard/paper, but that's basically the only advantage.

The places here that offer kebab/fries and sausage/grilled whatever to go still use larger styro trays here, and they're less convenient and sturdy than the styro burgerware was. I'm actually hoping someone comes up with an alternative.

The noise of it rubbing is horrible, it's not recyclable and the texture is weird. It's an amazing material technically, but it isn't that good day to day.

Quite a few of my local Chinese places still use the clamshell takeout ones. It's the worst. The plastic and the stereotypical one both work really well. The Styrofoam is good at leaking all the sauce out the sides.
