Abstract

A resealing lid has a web. A skirt depends from the web. At least a first projection and a second projection are formed on the web. The first projection is spaced from the second projection. Each of the first projection and the second projection are adapted to selectively engage a retaining member on the lid. A tear line formed in the skirt removes a portion of the skirt. A remaining portion of the skirt connects the first projection to the second projection.
