ABSTRACT:
A container for holding and pouring semi-viscous or viscous liquids is disclosed and is particularly useful for holding and pouring condiments such as ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, relish or semi-viscous liquids such as salad dressing. The container includes an integrally molded body having a neck finish defining a generally cylindrical opening and being adapted to secure a lid to the container. At least one shaped pour guide is formed by the body below the neck finish for controlling and directing the flow of liquids out of the container in at least one selectable direction. In an embodiment, the container includes a plurality of shaped pour guides formed by the neck of the container and being spaced equidistantly about a circumference of the neck finish and opening of the container.
