<p>A container (10) for storing items, such as foodstuffs, includes a monolithic side wall (18) which includes a window portion (30) having greater transparency than the remainder of the side wall. This is achieved by forming the container (10) of a clear, tinted material, and forming the window portion (30) with a reduced thickness, and/or forming the window portion (30) with a smooth surface and forming the remainder of the side wall with an obscuring texture. A cover (12) maybe used to close the container (10), and may form a seal with the container. The cover (12) may include pivot pins (44) to permit the cover to be pivoted to a position breaking the seal, thus permitting easier removal of the cover. A pouring insert (14) may also be used with the container. The pouring insert (14) is mounted to the mouth of the container, and includes a main pour spout and a secondary pour spout. Both pour spouts include pour guides to direct spilled contents back into the container. A hinge in the pouring insert permits a first section to remain in position while a second section is folded therebeneath. The second section may be secured in this position, forming a scooping aperture. <IMAGE></p> |
