Comestible package with closure

Abstract

A package includes a pair of opposed package end surfaces and a first package wall spaced from a second package wall and connected thereto by an end wall forming a first compartment for holding one or more product pieces. The first compartment has an opening. A cover extends from the first compartment and is movable between an open and closed position to selectively cover and uncover the first compartment opening. A closure is disposed at one of the opposed end surfaces and retains the cover in the closed position. The closure includes a first closure member on the cover and a second closure member on the container. The first closure member is selectively, operatively couplable to the second closure member.

         24 . A package comprising:
 a first package wall spaced from a second package wall and connected thereto by a first and second end wall forming a first and second compartment for holding one or more product pieces, the second package wall including a removable portion, and wherein removal thereof provides access to the first and second compartments.   
     
     
         25 . The package as defined in  claim 24 , wherein the first compartment is offset from the second compartment along a length of the first package wall and the removable portion extends transverse to the length. 
     
     
         26 . The package as defined in  claim 24 , wherein the removable portion is bounded at its edges by a frangible portion to permit the removable portion to be separated from the second package wall. 
     
     
         27 . The package as defined in  claim 24 , wherein the removable portion restricts rotation between the first and second compartments and separation of the removable portion permits the first and second compartments to be rotated toward each other. 
     
     
         28 . The package as defined in  claim 24 , wherein the package includes an initial first closed position wherein the removable portion is secured to the second package wall, and a second closed position wherein the removable portion is separated from the second package wall and the first compartment is rotatable over the second compartment. 
     
     
         29 . The package as defined in  claim 24 , further including a closure for retaining the first compartment to the second compartment. 
     
     
         30 . The package as defined in  claim 29 , wherein the closure includes a first closure member disposed on the first compartment and a second closure member disposed on the second compartment. 
     
     
         31 . The package as defined in  claim 24 , wherein the first closure member includes a tab and the second closure member includes a slot disposed adjacent the second end wall. 
     
     
         32 . A package comprising:
 a compartment having an interior adapted to hold product pieces;   a cover extending from a first end of the compartment, the cover including a recess for receiving therein the compartment, the cover having a base wall and an end wall extending from the base wall;   a first closure member being disposed on the cover adjacent a junction between the base wall and the end wall; and   a second closure being formed on the compartment and being operably engagable with the first closure to selectively secure the cover in a closed position.   
     
     
         33 . The package as defined in  claim 32 , wherein the first closure includes a slot formed in the cover. 
     
     
         34 . The package as defined in  claim 33 , wherein the second closure includes a tab removably insertable in the slot. 
     
     
         35 . The package as defined in  claim 34 , wherein the second closure includes a flap extending from a second end of the compartment and positionable over the end wall. 
     
     
         36 . The package as defined in  claim 32 , further including a front and back surface each being substantially continuous and uninterrupted. 
     
     
         37 . The package as defined in  claim 24 , wherein the first package wall and second package wall are opposed planar surfaces. 
     
     
         38 . The package as defined in  claim 25 , wherein the removable portion is disposed between two wall portions and wherein removal of the removable portion creates a continuous gap between the wall portions. 
     
     
         39 . The package as defined in  claim 38 , wherein the gap extends across an entire width of the second package wall. 
     
     
         40 . A package comprising:
 a package housing including a first package wall spaced from a second package wall and connected thereto by a first and second end wall forming a first and second compartment for holding one or more product pieces, the package housing having an unopened position wherein the first and second compartments are aligned in a common plane, the second package wall including a removable portion, and wherein removal thereof provides access to the first and second compartments and permits rotation of the first compartment over the second compartment wherein the package housing assumes a second closed position to restrict access to the first and second compartments.   
     
     
         41 . The package as defined in  claim 40 , wherein the package housing is formed of a single unitary piece of material.
