Zusammenfassung:A lid for closing a container comprising a first part having an indentation (16) adapted to receive a projection (18) of a second part, the projection defining a cavity into which a spoilage monitoring device is received; the spoilage monitoring device (2) comprising a reservoir containing a digestor fluid and a tray (62) containing a digestible material, wherein the tray has a base with a tactile pattern (68) formed in the base and the digestible material is solid and covers the raised tactile surface; and wherein an axial movement of the parts relative to each other causes irreversible activation of the device such that the digestor fluid is absorbed by the digestible material liquefying it over a period of time, whereupon the digestible material is dissipated and a user is able to feel the raised tactile pattern.
