<p>The invention is directed to a multicomponent package having an upper and lower component that are releasably attached to each other and wherein one of either the upper or lower component has high oxygen barrier properties and the other component has low oxygen barrier properties. In one embodiment, one of the components has an oxygen transmission rate of at least 4,000 cc at STP/m 2 /24 hr/atm, and the other component has an oxygen transmission rate of less than 1,000 cc at STP/m 2 /24 hr/atm. The multicomponent package can be used to package food products that may be incompatible with each other or where it may be desirable to package each food product in differing packaging environment. As a result, two or more dissimilar food products may be stored, shipped, and/or sold in the same package.</p> |
