The first leg may be coupled with the first panel. The second leg may have opposite ends and a middle portion with at least the middle portion separate from the first panel and the second panel. The second leg and the second panel may form an auxiliary port through which product can be loaded into an interior volume disposed between the first panel and the second panel. The middle portion of the second leg of the gusset panel may be coupled with the second panel after the product is loaded into the interior volume between the first panel and the second panel to enclose the product in the interior volume.
