Abstract
A bag made of two opposing sheets, shaped to have a dispensing funnel extending outward from one side at the bottom. The bag is primarily for dry contents and constructed so that it is easy to pour dry contents with control, even if they are heavy. The dispensing funnel has a grippable spout and a flow area that allows the contents to flow through the spout easily. The grippable spout can be held in the hand, and affords more control over the flow by manually opening and shutting the opening. The structure of the funnel allows the user to hold the bag in one hand, tip the bag 45 degrees and hold on to the spout with the other hand to control the speed and direction of the flow. The bag is easy to construct and can be sold with or without contents.
