ABSTRACT:
A flexible plastic lid including a tubular pour spout with a separate snap on cap and vent is disclosed. The lid includes a pour spout extending from the base and located near the rim to ensure maximum pour efficiency. An air vent is positioned opposite the pour spout and allows liquids to flow freely without clogging the spout. The air vent is operated by pushing and pulling the vent. Once engaged, the lid creates an air tight enclosure for maintaining the freshness of the contents. Additionally, the can is compact in height for cold storage shelf space where space is at a premium in the kitchen. Once the snap on cap is engaged by the lip on the inside of the cap, a leak-proof seal is formed. The can lid is preferably made of molded plastic that is pliable to tightly snap onto the can, yet durable to withstand the heat of commercial dishwashers.
