So I have a bottle similar to this one, and I wish for a small snack container that opens in a similar way.

I want something that opens with a button push, revealing an opening wide enough to dump loose granola, mixed nuts, or trail mix into my mouth.

But also I want it to keep dirt and machining coolant sprays out, so in want the lid to cover the entire top when it's closed like the bottle is covered, and I want to be able to operate the spring loaded lid without touching anything that I then have to eat from.

I have yet to find a good solution.

Not spring operated, but what about something like this?

I searched for "flip top jars thumb" and found it under the brand name "ergo spout".

That looks like it would work

You'd think this would easier to find but instead I'm just getting patents. Which may be the issue actually.

Thermos Funtainer Food Jar?

Cancel that. It's a screw top. The flip top just holds the foldable spoon.
