Abstract
A carton for dispensing flowable material. The carton has a plurality of panels and end flaps for closing respective ends of the carton. An access opening in one of the panels is for providing access to the interior of the carton. The carton further can include a flexible bag that is positioned in the interior of the carton, and a spigot that is operatively connected to the bag for selectively dispensing the flowable material from the interior of the bag by way of the spigot. The carton is shaped to enhance flow of the flowable material through the spigot.
