ABSTRACT:
A modified gabled drink carton is disclosed which makes it easier for the elderly and infirm patient to open and use the cation and to thereby drink nutritional liquid contained therein. The disclosed carton includes, in addition to the gabled pour spout on a standard gabled drink cation, a straw port which is located under the gable opposite thereto. Identifying markings distinguish the pour-spout gable and the opposing straw-pod gable, and thereby help the user to locate the end which has the type of opening that is desired to be used.
