- and
- a lid assembly coupled with the container, the lid assembly comprising:
- an upper lid defining a curved elongated recess and a dispensation opening extending to the curved elongated recess;
- and
- a lower lid at least partially defining a lower opening in fluid communication with the curved elongated recess, such that the lower lid and the upper lid cooperate to define a dispensation chamber;
- wherein:
- when the upper lid is in a first position, the lower opening is proximate the dispensation opening;
- when the upper lid is in a second position, the lower opening is spaced further from the dispensation opening than when the upper lid is in the first position, and the lower lid cooperates with the upper lid to define a tortuous path through the dispensation opening, through the dispensation chamber, and through the lower opening;
- and
- the upper lid rotates between the first position and the second position along a rotational axis, the rotational axis being aligned with the central axis of the container.
