Full Text This invention relates to a container with a pick for dispensing the contents of the container, particularly, a flavored tobacco paste known as 'Kiwam' containing saffron and silver leaves.
BACKGROUND
Traditionally, for packing kiwam paste, glass jars with plastic caps are used. Since 'kiwam' contain saffron, silver leaves and the like, this product is consumed in a small quantity along with beetle leaves (paan). This product is taken out with the help of a match-stick or using one's own finger. This unhygienic practice is being continued for the past few decades.
The object and summary of the invention
The object of this invention is to obviate the unhygienic practices by providing a special container with a pick for the purpose of withdrawing a portion of the paste (kiwam) required each time from said container.
To achieve the said objective, this invention provides a container with a pick for dispensing the contents of the container, said container closed with a plastic cap characterized in that a housing for firmly holding the pick for dispensing the required quantity of product from said container is either provided in said cap or at the bottom or side wall of the container to avoid unhygienic practices.
