ABSTRACT:
In a box which is made of cardboard or other rigid material and has a rectangular prism-like shape, one or two opposite faces have an inspection port which is closed with transparent material and is flanked by a graduated scale used to determine, according to the level reached after one or more partial removals, the weight of the short pasta or rice left in the box and any corresponding calories. The removal outlet, closed by a tear-open tab, is provided in one of the two faces that are normal to the face or faces provided with the inspection port and the graduated scale; the handle that makes it easier to grip the box protrudes on the opposite face. In the dosage container for short pasta or rice and in the dosage container for spaghetti or other long pasta, both made of cardboard or other opaque rigid material, there are one or more inspection ports which are made of transparent material and are shaped and/or arranged so as to directly form the sequence of elevation references, proximate to which the corresponding weight of the product and optionally the number of calories are indicated.
