Abstract
A resealable dispensing container assembly for moist products comprises a first container of bag-like form constructed of liquid impervious flexible sheet material with the moist products sealed therein. The bag-like container has a weakened tear line encircling a first predetermined area on a first side thereof to permit selective removal of the predetermined area to define a discharge opening for removing moist products from the interior of the bag-like container. A removable flap member is adhered to the bag-like container in overlying and adhered relationship to the predetermined area such that pulling the flap from the bag-like container tears the first predetermined area therefrom to open the discharge opening. A second container of box-like form and constructed of relatively rigid sheet material encloses the bag-like container. The box-like container has a first wall closely overlying the first predetermined area of the bag-like container. The first wall has a weakened tear line encircling a second predetermined area thereof which overlies and is at least substantially as large as the first predetermined area in the side of the bag-like container. A relatively rigid cover is pivoted relative to the first wall and overlies a second predetermined area. The cover is bonded to the second predetermined area of the first wall such that pivoting of the cover causes the second predetermined area to be torn from the first wall to provide access to the first predetermined area of the bag-like container.
