Abstract

A resealable package includes first and second panel sections joined together to define an enclosed region, first and second opposite side edges, a bottom edge, and a mouth that provides access to the enclosed region. The resealable package also includes a closure mechanism for selectively opening and sealing the mouth. The closure mechanism includes first and second closure profiles, the first closure profile having first and second base strips with first and second interlocking closure members extending from the first and second base strips, respectively, and the second closure profile having third and fourth base strips with third and fourth interlocking closure members extending from the third and fourth base strips, respectively. The first and second interlocking closure members and third and fourth interlocking closure members extend a length from the first, second, third and fourth base strips sufficient for the first and third interlocking closure members and the second and fourth interlocking closure members to selectively engage. The closure mechanism further includes a slider having a plow. The plow comprises a substantially vertical member depending from the top of the slider and a substantially horizontal member that is connected to the substantially vertical member and is disposed between the first and third interlocking closure members and the second and fourth interlocking closure members, respectively.
