A portion control dispensing apparatus for dispensing portions of a product in a tightly controlled manner that minimizes waste caused by residual product left undispensed in a container. The device provides a dispenser for fluid products stored in a flexible container (30), enabling a portion control pum p (100) combined with an extrusion apparatus (18) to squeeze the flexible container, thus continuously directing all remaining product in the containe r towards the dispensing end. A portion control pump removes product from the container by peristaltic action. A preferred embodiment of the apparatus comprises a frame (10) with an upwardly spring biased carriage (400) configured to removably hold a flexible container that holds product to be dispensed.
