A container for dispensing food includes a hopper having an inlet at its top and an outlet at its bottom, a gate slidably mounted on the hopper for opening and closing the outlet, and an actuator handle pivotally mounted on the hopper and engageable with the gate for moving the gate. The gate includes an upstanding projection that agitates the food in the hopper as the gate is moved, and the front wall of the hopper includes a plurality of flexible fingers that operate to meter the flow of food through the outlet. The gate may only be slid to an open position if a latching mechanism is first unlocked.
