Abstract: A disposable container and lid arrangement includes a container with at least one graphic arbitrary symbol thereon. A lid that is sized to releasably fit on the container will have a matching graphic arbitrary symbol. A method of putting a lid on a disposable container includes viewing the container to see at least one of first and second graphic symbols, locating a lid that will fit the container by looking for a lid having a symbol that matches the first and second symbols, and then placing the selected lid on the container.

Abstract: A plastic lid for a container includes a body having an outer periphery with a lip constructed and arranged to releasably attach to the container. A tab extends from the lip. The tab includes a tab boundary including first and second peripheral edges joined at a radiused portion. The tab also includes a floor within the tab boundary. There is at least one depression within the floor. The first peripheral edge has an incline increasing from the radiused portion to the lip. The second peripheral edge is substantially flat from the radiused portion to the lip. A plastic storage device includes the plastic container with the plastic lid.
