The present invention relates to a powder storage container formed by comprising: a storage part (10) in which a protein supplement is stored; an opening (20) which is open and connected to the top of the storage part and protrudes upward, and has a screw thread formed on the protruding outer circumferential surface thereof; a lid (30) for opening and closing the opening; a scoop (40) which is formed to be separate from the storage part (10) and is used when scooping the stored protein supplement; and an attaching part (50) which is formed between the upper end of the storage part (10) and the lower end of the opening (20) and enables the scoop (40) and the lid (30) to be attached thereto or detached therefrom and securely placed thereon, wherein the powder storage container of the present invention can improve the problems of uncleanliness in terms of hygiene and worry about loss, as the lid is not placed on the ground but securely placed on the exterior of the container, and the container has the significant effect of being more convenient to use, as an accurate amount by the spoonful can be scooped easily.

The present invention includes a kit that includes a container with a removable lid that is operable to create a seal around the container, and an internal release mechanism that is operable to sever the bond between the food and the surrounding container so that food items can be easily removed from the container. The release mechanism comprises a bottom member and two opposing side members extending therefrom that are configured to conform to the contours of the container and is operable to dislodge food from the interior surface of the container in a sweeping fashion by rotating the release mechanism within the container. The release mechanism may be fastened to the bottom of the container and optionally may include a lip to aid in scraping food from the container.

An article of manufacture comprising a planar utensil element fabricated of an elongated foldable material and having a plurality of scores indicating where the planar utensil element is to be folded in order to become a usable utensil. Folding the planar utensil element about the scores produces a handle and a bowl. An element of a food package fabricated of the same material as the planar utensil element, such as a cover, covers at least a portion of the planar utensil element. The cover or other element of the food package provides physical and hygienic protection to the planar utensil element during transportation of the planar utensil element. The planar utensil element is positioned under the cover or other element on a surface of the food package.

A card-based package for sensitive food products, comprises a container portion defining an interior space with a base and a sidewall extending to an upper peripheral edge for receiving a removable seal for hermetically sealing the container portion prior to use. The package further comprises a lid structure, that can open and close to allow selective access to the interior space after removal of the seal. The container portion and the lid structure are both formed of card-based material and at least the container portion has light, oxygen, and water vapour barrier properties sufficient for storage of the product for a period exceeding 24 months.

A card-based package for powdered infant nutrition, comprises a container portion, the container portion defining an interior space for receiving the powdered infant nutrition and having a base and a sidewall extending to an upper peripheral edge for receiving a removable seal for hermetically sealing the container portion prior to use. The package further comprises a collar portion and a lid portion. The collar portion is connected to and extends upwardly from the upper peripheral edge of the container portion and comprises a connection segment and an upper peripheral closure rim surrounding an access opening giving access to the interior space. The lid portion comprises a lid and a frame and forms a re-closable joint with the upper peripheral closure rim of the collar portion, allowing repeated and selective opening and closing of the access opening. The container portion, the collar portion and the lid portion all comprise card-based material.

A process for preparing a ready-to-eat mature coconut in which coconuts are selected based on its flotation characteristics, higher floaters being more mature. An oval or circular groove is carved partially into the bottom of the coconut shell. The coconut is then sealed into a heat tolerant plastic bag in which it is cooked, then frozen. Pieces of coconut husk are roasted until they turn black, then boiled in water to obtain a vapor that condenses to a liquid extraction, which is added to the bag before sealing it. The sealed bag is then heated to obtain sweet coconut water, some separation of coconut meat from the coconut shell, and the expansion of the coconut water during the spraying of steam to slightly split the coconut shell along the carved groove whereby the tip of a spoon can be used to pry off the coconut shell.
