1. A lid comprising of: (a) a brim latch that adjoins a rim, which extends around a periphery of the lid;(b) a support tab in mating engagement with at least one wing that comprises of a top rim, an elevated member that extends upward and circumferentially from the brim latch, at least one sloped wall, and two side walls and wherein the at least one wing is perforatedly connected to the support tab extending from a distal end to a proximal end of the support tab's first horizontal edge; and(c) at least one film strip removably attached to the at least one wing, wherein the at least one film strip substantially covers the top rim of the at least one wing, which includes an arcuate portion sloping from side to side forming a downward u-shaped slope wherein the sides protrude upward and outward defining a lip contacting area causing a seal to be formed when the lip contacting area is engaged by an individual's lips. 2. The lid of claim 1, wherein the brim latch extends circumferentially along the lid's perimeter and includes a clamping edge that sealingly engages a rim of a container. 3. The lid of claim 1, wherein the at least onewing is releasably attached to a first horizontal edge of the support tabby perforations that extend from a distal end to a proximal end along the support tab's first horizontal edge. 4. The lid of claim 1, wherein the support tab is diametrically disposed across the lid extending from rim to rim and is adapted to provide an anchor for the at least one wing, when the at least one wing is in an open position. 5. The lid of claim 1, further comprising of a second wing of equal size arranged diametrically opposite the at least one wing. 6. The lid of claim 5, wherein the second wing is in mating engagement with the support tab. 7. The lid of claim 5, wherein the second wing is releasably attached along a second horizontal edge of the support tab by perforations that extend from a distal end to a proximal end of the support tab's second horizontal edge. 8. The lid of claim 5, wherein the second wing's top rim includes an arcuate portion sloping from side to side forming a u-shaped slope wherein the sides protrude upward and outward defining a lip contacting area causing a seal to be formed when the lip contacting area is engaged by an individual's lips. 9. The lid of claim 5, wherein the second wing includes a sloped wall oriented with a downward slant at an acute angle relative to the support tab. 10. The lid of claim 1, wherein the at least one sloped wall is oriented with a downward slant at an acute angle relative to the support tab. 11. The lid of claim 1, wherein an overflow well is formed between the support tab, the sloped wall and the lip contacting area that are bounded circumferentially by the elevated members. 12. The lid of claim 1, wherein the at least one film strip partially covers the at least one lip contacting area. 13. The lid of claim 1, a second film strip is removably attached to the second wing, wherein the second film strip partially covers the lip contacting area of the second wing. 14. The lid of claim 1, wherein the at least one film strip includes a tab extending radially outward from the film strip, wherein the tab is adapted to permit the removal of the film strip from the lid. 15. The lid of claim 1, further comprising of at least one snap extension positioned on the top rim of any one of the following: the at least one wing or the second wing. 16. The lid of claim 15, wherein the at least one snap extension is adapted with an outwardly extending protrusion. 17. The lid of claim 1, further comprising of a receptacle arranged diametrically opposite the at least one snap extension adapted to sealingly engage the at least one snap extension. 18. The lid of claim 17, wherein the receptacle may be positioned on the top rim of any one of the following: the at least one wing or the second wing. 19. The lid of claim 1, further comprising of at least one return vent positioned on any one of the following: the at least one wing or the second wing. 20. The lid of claim 1, wherein the film strip is layered with an adhesive. 21. The lid of claim 1, wherein the film strip is thermally applied to the lid. 22. The lid of claim 1, being constructed from any one or more of the following materials: plastic, light aluminum. 23. The lid of claim 1, further comprising of at least one annular opening. 24. The lid of claim 23, further comprising at least one annular opening positioned on the lip contacting area, wherein the at least one annular opening includes surrounding side walls extending circumferentially therefrom and so dimensioned that when the lid is seated on a container, it creates access to the inner section of the container.
