ABSTRACT:
A package for holding frangible particulate material, such as breakfast cereal. The package is designed to separate the crumbs or fines from the larger or unbroken and more palatable particles of cereal and to trap the crumbs so they will not recombine with the more edible portion of the cereal when the container is upended to pour the cereal into a bowl. The package has a partition member insert comprised of an apertured screening section and at least one imperforate ramp section inclined towards the screening section. The screening and ramp sections are supported above the bottom of the container to provide for sifting of the crumbs through the screening section, while the package is in its normal upright position, and to allow the crumbs to gravitate into the trapping space, defined by the imperforate ramp section, the bottom closure and the surrounding walls, when the package is tilted during pouring.
