Abstract

An improved easy open closure for a container that is particularly adapted for use by the disabled includes a plunger member (30) having a passage defined therein that is constructed and arranged to be depressed with respect to a main body portion (16) of the closure in order to breach a seal (28) in order to place the passage in communication with the contents of the container. Structure (50) may be provided for preventing access to or movement of the plunger member until opening of the closure is desired.
