A closure comprising a main portion and a flip-top portion are provided. The main portion comprises a tab and at least one rib. The flip-top portion is operatively connected to the main portion and is movable with respect to the main portion. The tab can be configured to break at least partially away from the at least one rib as a result of downward force applied to the tab. The at least one rib can be configured to spiral partially away from the tab and the main portion when the tab is pulled in an upward direction away from the main portion. The tab and the at least one rib comprise a tamper evident seal.

1. A closure, comprising: a main portion comprising a tab and at least one rib; anda flip-top portion operatively connected to the main portion and movable with respect to the main portion, wherein the tab and the at least one rib are irreversibly removable from the main portion;wherein the tab comprises a first end, a second end, and a tether portion, the first end removably attached to the tether portion, and the second end operatively attached to the tether portion,wherein the tab is configured such that a force applied to the first end in a first direction towards the container causes the second end to move in a second direction away from the container. 2. The closure of claim 1, wherein a location of the tab is at about a center of an opening of the main portion, wherein the opening of the main portion corresponds with a mouth of a container. 3. The closure of claim 1, wherein the at least one rib comprises a spiral element that at least partially encloses at least a portion of the tab. 4. The closure of claim 1, wherein the at least one rib comprises a spiral element that at least partially encircles the tab at least once. 5. The closure of claim 1, wherein the at least one rib comprises a spiral element that at least partially surrounds the tab at least twice. 6. The closure of claim 1, wherein the at least one rib is configured to spiral partially away from the tab and the main portion when the tab is pushed in a downward direction toward the main portion. 7. The closure of claim 1, wherein the tab and the at least one rib comprise a tamper evident seal. 8. A method for fabricating a container cap, comprising: forming a lid portion;forming a body portion comprising an integrated tamper evident seal, wherein the integrated tamper seal comprises a first end, a second end, and a tether portion, the first end removably attached to the tether portion, and the second end operatively attached to the tether portion, wherein the integrated tamper seal is configured such that a force applied to the first end in a first direction towards a container causes the second end to move in a second direction away from the container; andconnecting the lid portion and the body portion. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the forming the body portion comprises creating a spiral tab on an interior section of the body portion. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein the forming the body portion comprises forming a spiral tab including portions formed of thin sections of material. 11. A container assembly, comprising: a container;a dispensing closure comprising: a skirt configured to operatively engage a neck portion of the container;a body portion operatively attached to the container, wherein the body portion comprises a movable element that indicates evidence of product tampering, wherein the movable element comprises a first end, a second end, and a tether portion, the first end removably attached to the tether portion, and the second end operatively attached to the tether portion, wherein the moveable element is configured such that a force applied to the first end in a first direction towards the container causes the second end to move in a second direction away from the container; anda lid portion operatively attached to the body portion at a hinge and configured to move away from the body portion when product is to be dispensed from the container. 12. The container assembly of claim 11, wherein the container and the dispensing closure are molded as a one piece unit. 13. The container assembly of claim 11, wherein the movable element is in removable engagement with the body portion. 14. The container assembly of claim 11, wherein disengagement of at least a portion of the movable element from the body portion is indicative of product tampering. 15. The container assembly of claim 11, wherein the movable element is non-reusable. 16. The closure of claim 1, further comprising a second tab having a first end, a second end, and a tether portion, the first end removably attached to the tether portion, and the second end operatively attached to the tether portion. 17. The closure of claim 16, wherein the tab is adjacent to the second tab. 18. The method of claim 8, wherein respective portions of the tamper evident seal are devoid of material. 19. The assembly of claim 11, wherein the first end has an indented area that extends toward the container.
