ABSTRACT:
A compartmentalized soft-sided container (10) includes a beverage compartment (12) disposed in front of a warm compartment (14) and a cool compartment (16). A pair of removable insulating interior walls (40, 42) are attachable to the interior of the container (10) to divide the container (10) into the individual compartments (12, 14, 16). The beverage compartment (12) includes an adjustable closure (64) that is capable of tightly securing differently-sized beverage containers (62) by providing a flexible sheet having a drawstring (66) that allows the height and opening of the closure (64) to be adjusted. The drawstring (66) may also be used to cinch about the neck of a beverage container (62) to securely hold it in container (10). Container (10) is also tapered such that compartments (14, 16) snugly retain articles such as soup bowls (78, 80) to prevent spilling.
