Abstract: Easy open blister packaging suitable for low density products, such as beverage tablets. In one embodiment, a blister package can have a forming layer with a flange and at least one blister cavity having a floor formed to slant at an angle of at least about 15 degrees relative to the forming layer flange, each blister cavity having a perimeter defining an open top and dimensioned to hold one product. The lidding layer can be a laminate sealed to at least the perimeter of the open top of each blister cavity, the lidding layer having a clear PET layer, an adhesive layer, a metal foil layer, a peripherally sealed desiccant layer and a pre-perforated sealant layer to seal to the forming layer, wherein the sealant layer perforations provide air communication between the blister cavity and the desiccant layer and the desiccant peripheral seal prevents air communication beyond the lidding layer periphery.
