Abstract

The packaging for a food product is provided with a container having an upper opening. An annular frame that is mounted as a close fit on the container has an upper face provided with an annular projection extending in the continuation of the interior face of the frame. A lid mounted articulated with respect to the frame is adapted to close off the opening, the lid having a top wall, a side wall and an interior skirt, a continuous groove being defined between the side wall and the interior skirt. A measuring utensil with a bowl is stored between the opening of the container and the lid in the closed position. The annular projection is inserted into the continuous groove and the interior skirt presses at least partially against said interior face of the frame in the closed position of the lid.
