Container for storing and dispensing food items and beverages

   
   

A container assembly for storing and dispensing food items and beverages having a vessel and a removable lid. The vessel defines a longitudinal axis and has a first tongue and groove member. The removable lid has a lid aperture for accessing an interior of the vessel, and a complementary mating second tongue and groove member that is rotatable with the lid about the longitudinal axis and relative to the first tongue and groove member of the vessel between a lid secured configuration and a lid releasing configuration. In the lid secured configuration, the tongue and groove members fully engage one another, preventing longitudinal movement of the lid member relative to the vessel. In the lid releasing configuration, the tongue and groove members are configured so as to permit longitudinal movement of the lid member relative to the vessel, and such that the lid member is removable from the vessel.
