A packaged food product may incorporate an angled back card to improve stability by providing an enlarged footprint when the package is standing upright, i.e., vertically oriented. The angled back card can provide a wider base of support between the front of the product and the back card to improve the ability of the package to be self-supporting in an upright position, i.e., to stand up reliably on a shelf without leaning on other structures for external support. The package may be generally dumbbell-shaped as viewed from the front and/or from other angles, and may comprise a center portion that is narrower and/or shallower than adjacent end portions. This may facilitate handling of the product by the consumer and also may help to provide the product with an impactful appearance and theme at retail when the product is viewed from the front and/or from other angles. The product may include high-protein food items, consistent with the theme established by the shape, and may include prominently-displayed information about the protein content of the food items.

The present invention discloses a lid cover having a locking mechanism and a container assembly comprising the lid cover. The lid cover includes a cap connectable with a connector body having a button constructed to be movable between a first position where the button engages the cap to close the connector body, and a second position where the button is separated from the cap to open up the cap. The locking mechanism includes a knob operably coupled to the button, and capable of moving between a locked position where the knob restrains the button within the first position, and an unlocked position where the knob allows the button to be released from the first position into the second position. The present invention is capable of locking the lid cover to prevent an unexpected opening of the lid cover.

A tumbler with maneuverable straw is an apparatus that facilitates the consumption of small edible additives of a beverage. The apparatus includes a straw assembly, a lid, and a tumbler. The straw assembly includes a mouthpiece, a straw, and a main channel. The straw assembly delivers the beverage and small edible additives contained within the tumbler to the mouth of the user. The mouthpiece serves as a mount for the lips of the user and allows the user to maneuver the straw within the tumbler. The lid covers an open end of the tumbler and mounts the straw assembly onto the tumbler. The lid seals the open end of the tumbler, preventing any leakage, and receives the straw assembly. The tumbler contains a beverage and any small edible additives such as tapioca balls. The apparatus further includes a friction inducing base that protects a closed end of the tumbler.

To provide a hot melt adhesive agent which is excellent in adhesive properties to a substrate material such as paper and a polyolefin, is also excellent in adhesive properties from a low temperature (around 4° C.) to a high temperature (around 50° C.), has little viscosity change even when a long time elapses, and has tack that is not too high. Provided is a hot melt adhesive agent for a container with a straw comprising an amorphous poly-α-olefin (A) and a metallocene polymer (B).

A deep drawing sheet packaging has a packaging body comprising a shell and a cover film. The cover film closes the shell, and the shell is formed from a deep drawing sheet. A printed material portion is arranged on the packaging body and is attached to the packaging body merely at a portion of a surrounding edge by an attachment seam.

According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a straw cap comprises a body that is configured to lie flat in a non-assembled state and has an interior volume that covers a straw in an assembled state. According to certain configurations the body has a triangular shape in the non-assembled state and at least a portion of a cone in an assembled state. Additionally, according to certain configurations, the body has a slit to selectively allow passage of a straw.

A beverage container having a straw storage compartment in the base of the container for a self-contained straw is described herein. The beverage container may comprise a container body having a beverage holding chamber and a straw storage compartment configured to enable storage of a removable drinking straw. A removable bottom closure component may be provided for opening and closing the straw storage compartment. The straw-holding structure may be attached to a wall defining the straw storage compartment or attached to an inner portion of the removable bottom closure component, such that when the removable bottom closure component is positioned to close the straw storage compartment, the straw-holding structure is located within the straw storage compartment. When the removable bottom closure component is fully engaged with the container body at an open lower end of the container body, the removable drinking straw may be entirely enclosed within the beverage container.
