Abstract
A device for and method of using the device to dispense pourable material from one or more pouches is provided. The device comprises a pair of hinged plates between which one or more pouches can be positioned. The plates of the device are joined by a ratcheting element that secure the plates and any pouches positioned between them. When a squeezing force is applied to the plates, the plates exert pressure upon the one or more pouches to cause the contents of the pouch(es) to be expelled. The ratcheting element is adapted to adjust automatically in response to the force exerted upon the plates. A device adapted to heat and dispense the contents of the one or more pouches is also provided.
