A gable top carton and a carton blank for forming a gable top carton are provided having patterns of score lines positioned beneath a closure aperture that relieve stress during a folding operation to better allow the carton blank to be formed into a suitable gable top container. The score pattern is particularly useful for cartons where the closure assembly has a flange which may touch or overlap with one of the walls of the front face panel of the assembled carton and respective portion of the carton blank.

A paperboard substrate that can be used to provide a food packaging particle is provided having a water vapor barrier layer comprising HDPE in combination with a nucleating agent which is extruded on to a paperboard substrate. The resulting substrate has sufficiently good water vapor barrier when properties that dry foods such as cereals do not require a bag or inner liner as a separate moisture barrier.
