Abstract
A plug is provided within a port in a flexible container. Extending from the port is a piece of flexible tubing which is used to connect with other tubing in a fluid system. Fluid is dispensed from the flexible container by grasping the end of the plug extending into the flexible container. The plug is then pulled into the interior of the container so that the opposite end of the plug which seals the flexible tubing extending from the port is unseated. The flexible tubing extending from the port is now open to the flow of fluid from the flexible container.
