Abstract

See full text

A container assembly comprising a container having a first section having a bottom wall, sidewalls, and end walls and a second section adapted to lie over the open top of said first section to selectively close the open top of said first section and an insert means adapted to separate the contents of said sections, said insert being removable from said container while said container is in a closed position. The container assembly of the present invention is particularly useful in maintaining the hot/cold or moist/dry components of a food product separate until just prior to consumption at which time the insert is removed and the components of the food product are combined. The insert is removable while the container is closed so that the components of the food product can be combined without necessitating handling by the consumer.
