An apparatus for holding food having a first inner chamber; and a cup having a top opening leading to an inner chamber, wherein the inner chamber of the cup is enclosed by a peripheral wall and a bottom. The apparatus for holding food and the cup may be configured to fit at least partially in the inner chamber of the cup, while the apparatus for holding food and the cup are both in an upright state, in a manner to allow liquid to sit on the bottom of the cup without being contacted by the apparatus for holding food, and to allow food to sit in the first inner chamber of the apparatus for holding food without falling through. The apparatus for holding food may have a circular shape, which covers the top opening of the cup, except for one or more indentations, through which a straw can be inserted.
