Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to an opening on a container to dispense liquids. The opening may unfold, in one embodiment, to an angle of, e.g., 90° which when the container is tilted extends past the edge of the container. The opening creates a spout when unfolded or opened. In embodiments, underneath the opening is a door that can control the flow of liquid from the container to the outside. The door may, for example, move up and down to control the flow of liquid. The spout/opening and/or container may include channels that can direct the flow of liquid. Optionally, the spout may be in the container and usable when the lid is removed.
