Abstract
A package has a vessel formed with a rim and at least one rib together forming an upwardly open compartment having a periphery and an upwardly open pocket separated by the rim from the compartment and also having a periphery. This pocket is separated at a connecting location from the compartment by the rib. A foil covering the compartment and pocket engages the rim and web all around the compartment and all around the pocket and is formed with an endless weakened tear line running along and within the periphery of the compartment except at the location, along and within the periphery of the pocket except at the location, and over the rib at the location. This foil is subdivided by the rib into a tearout tab overlying the pocket and a tearout section overlying the compartment and the web has a full thickness web extending over the rib and interconnecting the tab and section. A bond secures the foil to the vessel along and immediately outside the tear line.
