Abstract:
1. A jelly-containing device comprising: a flexible housing having a closed bottom, an open top, and a wall extending between the closed bottom and the open top, with the housing defining an inner space containing said jelly; and a plurality of spacers within the inner space of the flexible housing, with each spacer having a lower edge integrally formed with the closed bottom of the housing, an upper edge below the open top of the housing, and a lateral edge extending between the lower edge and the upper edge and being partially integral with the wall of the flexible housing, with the plurality of spacers dividing the inner space into a plurality of jelly-receiving spaces, with the lateral edges of the spacers being oriented relative to the wall of the flexible housing such that a portion of the lateral edges are not integral with the wall of the flexible housing such that clearances are present between the portion of the lateral edges and the wall of the flexible housing sufficient to improve the flexibility of the flexible housing, thus allowing the jelly to be squeezed out of the flexible housing more easily, said jelly filling the flexible housing including said jelly-receiving spaces and to a point above said upper edges of said spacers, such that the jelly is divided, by said spacers, into a number of portions equal to the number of jelly-receiving spaces, which portions are still partially connected to each other before and after being squeezed out of the flexible housing and its jelly-receiving spaces such that the jelly, free of the housing, and containing cross cutting lines caused by the spacers, will be easily broken through sucking and chewing, thus eliminating the danger of choking when the whole jelly is transferred to the mouth.
