Abstract
An easy-open wall is provided for a container and comprises curvilinear score means in such wall defining at least the major part of the peripheral outline of a panel which is partially severable from the wall to define a dispensing opening in the wall. A tab is attached in a nondetachable manner against the wall outwardly of the panel with the tab having a forward portion which overlies part of the panel and having a rear portion. The rear portion is easily grasped and lifted to urge the forward portion against the panel to thereby sever the major portion of said panel along the score means and move it within the container with a portion of the wall holding the panel securely thereto. The tab may be provided with means for fastening it flatly against the wall after using the tab to sever the panel.
