A canine multi-meal kit is provided herein. The kit comprises at least two containers, each container storing one dehydrated canine meal, in aspects. Each dehydrated canine meal is sealed within a container in an airtight manner by a containment structure. Each containment structure partitions a container into a volume occupied by a canine meal and another volume that is not occupied by the canine meal, as the volume of the canine meal is less than the total volume of the corresponding container. In one aspect, items are stored at least partially within the unoccupied volume of the containers when the kit is in an enclosed configuration.

An apparatus and method are provided for storing and dispensing into a liquid a soluble substance, such as a flavoring, a body fuel, a nutritional supplement, a stimulant, a relaxant, an alcohol neutralizer, or a medical drug. A useful application of the subject invention includes a lime flavoring held by a gelatinous artificial lime wedge stored with a beer bottle or can, or attached to a 6-pack or 12-pack carton. The artificial lime wedge may be retrieved from a protective covering and acted upon so it mixes the lime flavoring into the beer when it is inserted into the beer bottle or can. Rather than needing to buy and store a perishable natural lime, and cut it up, an artificial lime wedge may be stored for an extended period of time with a beer vessel and placed in functional contact with the beer at time of consumption.

A system for mixing two cosmetic products includes a tubular bottle defining a first reservoir containing a first product to be mixed, a tubular cartridge defining a second reservoir containing a second product to be mixed, a retaining device suitable for retaining the cartridge on the bottle in an injection position in which the first reservoir communicates with the second reservoir via the inlet orifice of the base and the injection orifice of the cartridge, a perforator having an upper edge designed to perforate the cap that seals the inlet orifice when the cartridge occupies the injection position, and a piston that seals the lower end of the cartridge and that is axially slidably mounted between an initial bottom position and a final top position in order to push the second product through the injection orifice from the second reservoir to the first reservoir.

An interengageable container and method including a bottom container and at least two top containers, each container including: (1) a bottom portion having outer edges; at least four tapered sidewalls attached to, and rising outwards of, the bottom portion, each of the least four tapered sidewalls having (a) a top edge parallel to each other and extending laterally outward of (b) a respective outer edge of the bottom portion from which they are attached at (c) respective lower edges, and (d) inner corners at each intersection of adjacent ones of the at least four tapered sidewalls.

The present device describes an adjustable container for providing a storage container whose volume may be adjusted to suit the size and amount of items held therein. The inventive device includes a base with a perimeter side wall extending around the base outer perimeter to define an interior space. The perimeter side wall has a height defined between the terminal edge of the perimeter side wall and the base. The base and side wall can include a first divider or wall extending along at least a portion of the base. A removable lid is provided including a second divider or wall extending into the interior space when the lid is fitted onto the base. The lid can be rotated relative to the base. Coordinated rotation of the lid relative to the base can subdivide the interior space into a selectively at least a first area and a second area.

A container is disclosed. The container has a container body including a sidewall surrounding an interior void with opposite open ends. The sidewall retains a movable panel that moves in opposite longitudinal directions toward the opposite open ends to increase or decrease a storage volume. The movable panel may include a manual sealing and locking mechanism. The container also includes a cover that covers one of the open ends and is openable or removable for access to contents. A one-way valve in the cover, sidewall, or movable panel permits evacuation of excess air from the storage volume.

A re-useable partitioning seal used storage containers creates a virtually airtight chambers, to preserve products therein. A disc or differently shaped layer, with flat top and bottom surfaces, is configured to fit against the interior surface of a storage container. A thin, flexible perimeter forming a gasket around the layer, and a handle attached to the layer without fissure or cavity, thereby providing and a single piece, inexpensive re-useable partitioning seal.
