Abstract
A reclosable package having a front wall (10), a rear wall (14), bottom (18), top (16), and first and second sides (20, 22). A zipper (24) extends across the package top between the sides with a slider (30) disposed along the zipper between a zipper fully open position when the slider is at the first side (20) and a fully closed position when the slider is at the second side (22). A side seal (36) on the first side (20) joins the front wall (10) to the rear wall (14) and extends between the bottom (18) and the zipper (24). The side seal (36) further extends toward the second side (22) for a distance at least as long as the length of the slider (30). When the slider (30) is in the zipper fully open position it parks above the side seal (36) and out of the mouth of the package (10) leading to a product cavity (38).
