The “Always good, always Hood” tagline used by Lynnfield, MA-based HP Hood, which distributes dairy products throughout the U.S., can now apply to its new easy-to-squeeze high-density polyethylene bottle for sour cream.

The injection-molded 12-oz, recyclable bottle joins Hood’s existing lineup of 8-, 16-, and 24-oz tubs. Other packaging components include a separate cap with valve that screws onto the bottle, and two labels—one applied to the front of the bottle, another to the back. Packaging suppliers were not disclosed.
