• a container, the container having a body portion formed by at least one container sidewall and a bottom wall at the base of the at least one container sidewall, the at least one container sidewall and the bottom wall defining a reservoir within the body portion, an opening formed at an upper end of the body portion, with an upper rim of the at least one container sidewall surrounding the opening,
• a first spout portion integrally formed with the container and positioned on the outside of the at least one container sidewall adjacent the upper rim, the first spout portion forming a measurement chamber adjacent the at least one sidewall and the container rim,
• a lid having a lid body formed by at least one lid sidewall and a top wall at, the top wall formed on an upper end of the at least one lid sidewall, a bottom opening formed at a bottom end of the lid body and defined by an engagement rim that surrounds the bottom opening, the engagement rim of the lid adapted to closely fit with the upper rim of the container, the lid forming a closure for the reservoir, and the lid and container forming a unitary structure upon assembly,
• a second spout portion integrally formed with the lid and positioned on an outside surface of the at least one lid sidewall adjacent the lid engagement rim, the second spout portion forming a pre-measurement chamber within the at least one lid sidewall,
• the first and second spout portions aligned upon assembly of the container and the lid, with the second spout portion positioned within the measurement chamber formed by the first spout portion,
• the second spout portion including a spout wall having a first wall portion and an finger portion, the finger portion extending at an inward angle and having a distal edge spaced from the at least one container sidewall, the spacing between the finger portion and the at least one container sidewall defining a measurement opening for controlling the flow of material into the measurement chamber, the first spout portion being spaced from the second spout portion, the spacing between the two spout portions defining a discharge passageway between the measurement chamber and an upwardly positioned discharge outlet.
