摘要

A tubular paperboard container (10) having a tear-strip opening and reclosure feature. A lid (12) is insertably received in an open top end of a tubular body portion, with an upturned edge region (24) of the lid being flush against an inner surface of the tubular body portion. Removal of the tear strip (26) exposes a downwardly extending portion of the lid that is insertably receivable, in a plug-like manner, in the remaining, now-open top end of the tubular body portion. <IMAGE>
