Abstract: Sealable pouch assemblies are described. In some embodiments, the sealable pouch assembly includes a soft pouch formed from an elastomeric material. The pouch includes a plurality of spaced apart external protrusions located near a top end of the pouch. A semi-rigid external frame is attachable to the pouch by the protrusions. The frame has a stable closed state and a stable open state. A slider is configured to slide over the external frame with the external frame in the closed state to seal the pouch in a closed pouch state.

Abstract: An eating utensil having a fork head that includes a plurality of tines and a concave fork bowl portion is described. One or both of the outer tines include a chamfered or tapered surface that extends laterally inward from a curved outer edge of the corresponding outer tine such that the curved tine/fork head edge acts as a splitting feature. In some embodiments one or both of the curved fork head edges that act as a splitting feature is/are smooth. In some embodiments, the eating utensil is formed of a glass reinforced thermoplastic material such as a glass filled nylon.

Abstract: A confectionary kit that holds ingredients suitable for making s'mores is described. In some embodiments, the kit takes the form of a box that holds two marshmallows positioned side-by-side and a stack that contains four crackers or biscuits and one or more chocolate pieces. In other embodiments, additional marshmallows and stacks are provided.

Abstract: A combination spoon and fork system capable of being stored in a nested configuration or used as a combination eating utensil with the spoon and fork connected end to end. An interlocking mechanism can interlock the spoon and fork in either the nested position or in the end to end configuration. The interlocking system allows the handle of the spoon to slide between rails on the handle of the fork and to snap and lock the spoon in place either nested with the fork or end to end with the fork to form an elongated combination eating utensil. The spoon and fork of the system can also be used separately from one another.

Abstract: A straw composed of first and second straw body elements that are pivotally coupled at a first longitudinal end of the straw is described. The straw body elements can be pivoted between a stable drinking position in which a longitudinally sealed channel is formed between the straw body elements, and a splayed position suitable for washing internal channel wall portions of the straw body elements.

Abstract: A modular, stackable, interlocking container system including a number of stackable containers having the same diameter. Each container includes a jar and a lid. The jars and lids both have ribs spaced 180 degrees apart on side surfaces to serve as alignment and tightening indicators. The lids and jars also have a detent feature for interlocking containers together with both tactile and feedback to the user. The container system also has a handle that can interlock with a lid of any of the containers in the system.

Abstract: A telescoping eating utensil capable of being stored in a collapsed configuration or extended to be used as an eating utensil. The utensil has a handle that can be extended or collapsed using an interlocking mechanism that can interlock the utensil in either the collapsed mode or in the extended mode. The interlocking system includes a locking button on a utensil tool part that engages with either an opening or a recess in the handle when the utensil tool part and the handle are slidably connected.

Abstract: A reusable travel tube that has a flexible tube portion, a collar and a cap that can be threaded onto the cap. The collar is fitted over a neck of the tube portion and forms a gasket-like seal between the neck of the tube portion and the collar. The cap has a rotatable locking bail that can prevent a flip-top cap from accidentally being opened. When the locking bail is not positioned to prevent the cap from being accidentally opened, it can be retracted into a nested position such that the handle of the bail is substantially flush with the outer side surface of the collar.
