A method of forming a multiple food product container for dispensing one food product from at or near one region of the container, and dispensing another food product at or near the other region of the container, is provided. In the method the two containers are coupled together (i.e., permanently or separably coupled). A preferred embodiment comprises an upper food compartment, a lower food compartment, wherein a top of the lower food compartment is coupled to a bottom of the upper food compartment, a resealable opening disposed at a top of the first food compartment, a resealable second opening disposed proximate a bottom of the second food compartment, a first food disposed in the upper food compartment, and a second food disposed in the lower food compartment.

1. A method of forming a multiple-food container, said method comprising:forming a first section having a first compartment, and having a first opening at a top of said first section;at least partially filling said first compartment with a first food;sealing said first opening at said top of said first compartment with a removable lid;forming a second section having a second compartment;forming a second opening having a moveable seal on a side of said second compartment and proximate a bottom of said second compartment;at least partially filling said second compartment with a second food;sealing said second compartment; andcoupling a top of said second section to a bottom of said first section.2. The method of claim 1, further comprising forming interlocking modular connections at said top of said second section and said bottom of said second section prior to said coupling of said sections.3. The method of claim 2, wherein said modular connections are separable.4. The method of claim 1, further comprising attaching a resealing lid to said top of said first section after said sealing of said first opening.5. The method of claim 1, further comprising forming a rotative resealing sleeve surrounding said second section.6. The method of claim 1, further comprising forming said first and second sections into cylindrical shapes.7. A method of forming a multiple-compartment container for food, said method comprising:forming a first section having a first compartment and having a first opening at a top of said first section;providing a removable lid adapted to cover said first opening at said top of said first section;forming a second section having a second compartment and having a second opening on a side of said second compartment and proximate to a bottom of said second compartment to provide access to an interior of said second compartment;forming a movable seal adapted to cover said second opening; andcoupling said second section to said first section.8. The method of claim 7, further comprising:at least partially filling said first compartment with a first food;sealing said first opening at said top of said first section with said removable lid;at least partially filling said second compartment with a second food; andsealing said second compartment with said movable seal.9. The method of claim 7, wherein said providing of said removable lid comprises removably and replaceably attaching said removable lid to said top of said first section.10. The method of claim 7, wherein said coupling of said second section to said first section comprises removably snapping together said second section to said first section via interlocking connections.11. The method of claim 7, wherein said coupling of said second section to said first section comprises permanently coupling said second section to said first section.12. The method of claim 7, wherein said movable seal comprises a rotatable resealing sleeve surrounding said second compartment.13. The method of claim 7, wherein said movable seal comprises a flap.14. A method of forming a multiple-food container, said method comprising:providing a first section of said multiple-food container, said first section having a first compartment at least partially filled with a first food, said first section having a first opening at a top of said first section, said first opening being sealed with a first cover;providing a second section of said multiple-food container, said second section having a second compartment at least partially filled with a second food, said second section having a second opening having a moveable seal on a side of said second compartment and proximate to a bottom of said second compartment; andattaching said second section to said first section to form said multiple-food container.15. The method of claim 14, wherein said providing of said first section comprises obtaining said first section after said first section is made by another.16. The method of claim 15, wherein said first section is a beverage can and said first food is a beverage.17. The method of claim 16, wherein said attaching said second section to said first section comprises:inserting said beverage can into a modular adapter; andsnapping together said modular adapter with said second section.18. The method of claim 14, wherein said providing of said first section comprises:filling said first compartment with said first food; andsealing said first opening at said top of said first section with said first cover.19. The method of claim 18, wherein said providing of said first section further comprises forming said first section such that said first section has said first compartment with said first opening.20. The method of claim 14, wherein said providing of said second section comprises:filling said second compartment with said second food; andsealing said second compartment.21. The method of claim 20, wherein said providing of said second section further comprises forming said second section such that said second section has said second compartment with said second opening and said moveable seal.
