Abstract: A display and packaging assembly (10) which is used to display and dispense consumable items. The assembly includes a plurality of consumable items arranged in plural individual packs (22). A flexible overwrap surrounds the plurality of packs (22). The overwrap has a configuration corresponding to the array of packs where the overwrap has a portion which is completely removable to access the packs. The overwrap maintains its configuration upon removal of one or more of the packs from the array.

Abstract: A reclosable, stackable, standable package for food products such as baked goods easily converts from a parallelepiped form to a widened shape on top for easy access to the snack which is contained within an inner liner bag. The package stays in a widened open configuration throughout hand-to-mouth snacking even while resting on its front or back panel. The outer carton of the package has score lines on the front and the back panels of the carton extending from the lower corners of the front and the back panels to the center of the upper edge of the front and the back panels. Score lines also extend across the center of the top front and back flaps. The score lines in combination with the disconnected top flaps design not only allows the top of the package to form a wide oval shaped opening for easy access to the packaged goods, but also allows the package to stay opened while snacking.
