A container having a bottom section having a plurality of discrete compartments which may be sealed to prevent spilling or intermixing of contents including liquids in the compartments, sealing is accomplished by a lid having ribs, each of which is dimensioned to fit within the top portion of a compartment. A rib of resilient material surrounds each rib and is compressed when the lid is affixed to the bottom section. The lid carries a locking mechanism which when in the close position urges the central part of the lid toward the bottom section.
