A box for storing and dispensing food-stuff distributed upon a foil band and wound to a spool upon a shaft comprises two like components, each defined by a base plate and three adjoining walls. Each wall is provided with an open slot starting from the edge of the pertaining wall remote from the base plate and extending about half-way down towards the latter, whereby the two components become sufficiently deformable to permit a fitting together, to form either a closed box, or a stand presenting an open front for serving-out purposes. The slots in two oppositely located walls are formed to carry the ends of the shaft and the slot in the intermediate wall preferably is deeper than the slots in the first mentioned walls. A box of this type may be fitted in an apparatus having a rotatable drum for coiling up the wasted foil band, as this is pulled out of the spool, to make the food-stuff available.
