Abstract (en)
The present invention relates to a container for pourable food (100). The container comprises an initially sealed body portion (300) for holding the pourable food and a drink spout (200) adapted for drinking from the container. The drink spout (200) is permanently attached to the outer surface of the container. The drink spout comprises a base portion (210) wherein the proximal end (220) of the base portion is permanently attached to the outer surface of the container, the proximal end (220) has an opening adapted for receiving pourable food from the body of the container, the distal end (250) of the base portion has an opening adapted for drinking the pourable food from the container, and the opening at the proximal end and the opening at the distal end are connected by a conduit for pourable food. The drink spout comprises a lid portion (250) which is initially attached to the base portion so that it seals the opening at the distal end by a breakable sealing portion wherein the sealing portion is adapted for being broken by the user so that the opening of the base portion becomes accessible and which remains permanently attached to the container by a connection portion after the breakable sealing portion has been broken by the user. The present invention further relates to a drink spout suitable for use with a container for pourable food.
