Abstract

A dispensing device includes a backing, at least a first product compartment and a fluid transport device. The backing is a frangible section adapted to at least partially open as the backing is moved from a first position toward a second position. The product compartment and the fluid transport device are each disposed on the backing in confronting relationship to the frangible section. According to a method, a dispensing device is provided in which the backing is moved from the first position toward the second position to compress the first product compartment and cause the content to be dispensed through the fluid transport device.
