Emballage pour produits alimentaires (10) muni d'un ustensile (22) dissimulé à l'intérieur. L'emballage est constitué d'un corps de boîte métallique (12) renfermant un produit alimentaire (16) et d'un couvercle amovible (14) fixé à la boîte métallique (12) pour en fermer une extrémité et pour former un compartiment de rangement (15) situé entre une extrémité de la boîte et le couvercle (14). Un ustensile replié (22) est logé dans le compartiment de rangement (15). Cet ustensile (22) se compose de deux parties : une section d'extrémité fonctionnelle (22a), comme une cuillère, une fourchette ou un couteau, et une section constituée par un manche (22b), reliées entre elles par un joint (22c) permettant de plier l'ustensile (22) et de le ranger dans le compartiment (15). Le terme «joint» est employé au sens large et comprend toute forme de raccord, par ex. une charnière ou un manchon destiné à joindre les parties complètement séparées de l'ustensile (22), c'est-à-dire le manche (22b) et la section fonctionnelle (22a). Des dispositifs d'assemblage (30a, 32a) peuvent être placés dans le couvercle (14) pour permettre de joindre et de verrouiller les différentes sections de l'ustensile (22).
