Abstract
A dispensing closure () for use with a container () includes a body () having a dispensing spout () with an interior surface () that defines at least a portion of a passage () for communicating with the container interior to permit the flow of a fluent substance through the body (). The dispensing closure () includes a closing element () attached to the body (). The closing element () defines a transverse cover () having a closed position relative to the body () and an actuated, open position relative to the body (). The transverse cover () has an outwardly projecting toggle tab () for being engaged by a user to move the transverse cover () from the closed position to the actuated, open position. The transverse cover () further has a flexible, resilient cantilevered sealing portion () that seals against the interior surface () of the dispensing spout () with the transverse cover () located in the closed position.
