You say you're carrying it -- care to share how?
Why do you want to carry grease in your on-bike tool kit? Are you taking it on long tours and will be away from home for weeks at a time?
If you do really need to carry some, ask at any pharmacy for a plastic pill bottle. These have secure twist-off lids (aka child-proof) that should keep the bottle closed under any reasonable circumstance.
