ABSTRACT:
A gable top carton of conventional external configuration having an openable and reclosable tamper indicating, damage resistant and non-interfering with stacking pouring spout is provided comprising a spout flap defined by lines of weakening in a rectangular roof panel and associated seal panel and a spout web member having a central panel attached to the inward face of the flap, outer glue panels attached to the rectangular roof panel adjacent but spaced from the spout flap and accordian pleat panels articulated to respective sides of the central panel and respective outer glue panels. The carton may have an inner seal panel having its peripheral edge sealed to the inward face of the carton blank to provide therewith a minor chamber containing the accordian pleat panels and adjacent central portion of the web member. Coupons or other things for consumers can be enclosed in the minor chamber out of contact with product in the major chamber. The minor chamber and major chamber can be opened by jointly tearing both the spout flap open and the underlying portion of the seal panel from the rest of that panel. The underlying portion of the seal panel can be in tension to urge enclosures in the minor chamber to remain on the central web portion as the spout is moved to fully open position. The spout may be reclosed and, by finger pressure adjacent the carton seal seam, resealed during shaking to mix contents.
