Abstract

A multiple compartment, separable carton (C) comprises a plurality of compartments (B1, B2, B3) connected together by a common top cover (30). The common top cover includes a top portion (34-42; 32'-42') which is removable relative to a lower portion (44, 44') thereof to expose the contents of each of the compartments. The lower portion of the top cover connects one compartment to the next by frangible connections (74, 76; 74', 76'), each of which is breakable to separate one compartment from the next.
