ABSTRACT:
A container with dual dispensers for allowing easy and complete dispensing of the container contents from either end of the container. In a first embodiment the container is characterized by a receptacle provided with a top dispenser on the upper end and a bottom dispenser on the lower end. The dispensers each include a pivoting lid or spout which reversibly seals a dispensing hole provided on the corresponding top or bottom surface of the container. In a second embodiment the top dispenser is characterized by a pivoting lid hinged at substantially the midpoint of the container top surface. In a third embodiment the top dispenser includes a spout pivoted to the top surface of the container and in a fourth embodiment the top dispenser is characterized by a threadably-mounted closure which pivotally carries a lid for reversibly sealing a dispensing hole in the top surface of the closure. In another embodiment the container is provided with both top and bottom dispensers, each having a pivoting lid which is recessed in the corresponding end of the container and is pivoted open into dispensing configuration by applying pressure to one end of the lid.
