Abstract
A container and dispenser for granular or powdered material in which the container has an upper aperture and dispensing orifices are defined by a flexible member which permits the orifices to be expanded with resulting contraction to break loose clogged material from the orifices. The flexible member is in the form of a conical spring having spaced notches along the length thereof to channel the condiment through the grooves and provide a more uniform dispensing pattern of the condiment.
