A container and closure assembly whereby a pull tab sufficiently narrow in width is secured to the interior of the closure, thereby preventing the closure from becoming loosened or displaced, yet when sufficient torque is applied by the consumer to open the closure and remove it from the container the narrow pull tab is disengaged from its seal to the interior of the closure, yet having the liner over the mouth of the closure remains intact and undamaged, thus preventing any contamination of the container content.
