Abstract
A container system includes, in its most preferred embodiment, a dispenser and a resealable, refillable container having a container body and a closure apparatus which includes a plug movably connected to a platform section which is connected to the container body through a rim section. The platform section defines a recess having a recess floor and a recess wall and an ovoid plug aperture located within the recess floor which is partially shielded by an aperture floor and selectively occupied by an ovoid bottom portion of the plug. The aperture floor defines an air hole and an upper surface which contacts a bottom surface of a wide end of the bottom portion of the plug, corresponding to the end which first departs away from the plug aperture.
