Abstract: A packaging assembly allows two substances, such as cereal and milk, to be held in separate compartments and then mixed when desired by applying hand pressure to the packaging assembly. The packaging assembly is provided with a compressible side wall portion and an impervious membrane having a frangible portion. The membrane separates the compartments such that applied pressure on the top of the package compresses the side wall portion and the downward pressure of the substance in the upper compartment causes the frangible portion of the membrane to rupture and thus allow the two substances to mix together. A partial wall may also be employed adjacent to the membrane to prevent regurgitation of the cereal and milk back into the upper compartment upon mixture in the lower compartment. The lower compartment may be opened to allow consumption directly from the package.

Abstract: A single use cereal and milk container is formed of a first container of paperboard laminate construction containing a supply of milk in an aseptically sealed condition, and a second container of plastic coated paperboard construction for holding a supply of cereal in a sealed stay fresh condition, and a user operable valve on the first container and disposed to an orifice in the second container for selectively breaking the aseptic seal to allow the supply of milk to gravity flow from the first container through the orifice into the second container and onto the cereal. A paperboard box holds the first and second container in juxtaposition and as an integral unit. The user first opens the second container by breaking the stay fresh seal to access the cereal and the valve. A spoon is disposed within the second container for ready use after accessing the cereal and before opening the valve. In one embodiment, an end portion of the spoon is specially formed to break the aseptic seal and open the valve.

Abstract: Container for separate solid and/or liquid food products which includes a shaped and reinforced prismatic body of a pasteboard template, having a mouth opening on an inclined plane and having larger side faces provided with identical opposing cuts. A pasteboard template, generally in the form of a "C", having an upper leg which defines an upper end surface with a cutout in it, is introduced inside the prismatic body. The upper end surface also has opposite lateral surface extensions that extend over the larger side faces and, two lips, are introduced into the cuts on the larger side faces which attaches the template to the prismatic body. The vertical wall of the "C"-shaped template is a partition that divides the interior of the prismatic body into an area to hold the solid product, while a receptacle with a liquid in it is introduced into the cited cutout in the upper end surface.

Abstract: Liquid contents such as water are stored in a heat-resisting can body having an openable section formed on an upper part thereof. Other material is stored within the can body while being separated from the liquid contents and, when the can body is heated above a predetermined temperature with the openable section opened, the separation between the stored material and the liquid is removed and the liquid can come in contact with the stored material. When the openable section is closed while the can body is heated, the stored material is kept separate from the liquid even during a sterilizing process but, when the can body is heated with the openable section opened, the separation between the stored material and the liquid is removed, and consequently the contents are mixed together. This permits the stored material to be preserved from the liquid until the contents of the can body are ready for use.
