Abstract

A lid for a container having a channel around its bottom periphery for closing onto a container body. The lid has an opening partially surrounded by an apron on the lower side of the lid, and a cap fitting over the opening. Bagged solids may be placed into the container. The apron allows bagged solids to be conveniently dispensed by preventing the open end of the bag from interfering with solid poured through the opening.
