Abstract

See full text

A gravity feed dispenser including a dispensing opening that exposes part of a front face and part of a bottom face of a stack of interfolded napkins. Interference tabs restrict the dispensing opening at the front face of the stack of napkins. A stack of interfolded napkins is seated on a bottom wall of the dispenser. The bottom wall is set back from a front wall in a front to rear direction to provide a dispensing gap. A leading flap of the stack of napkins hangs through the dispensing gap while a leading fold of the stack of napkins is pressed against a bottom end of the front wall. When the leading flap is pushed back, the leading fold passes beneath a bottom edge of the front wall to be grasped by a user for dispensing napkins at least two at a time.
