          Application No. 08/327,601                                                  


                                       APPENDIX                                       
               1.  A pouch or container for forming an envelope to                    
          protectively package a product such as a flowable or solid food             
          substance, said envelope being formed of two superposed panels              
          marginally sealed to better define a pocket to accommodate said             
          product, each panel being fabricated from a laminate sheeting               
          comprising:                                                                 
               A.  an outer ply of oriented synthetic plastic film having             
          a  glass transition temperature and a first surfaces which is               
          are corona-discharge treated to render it wettable and receptive            
          to a waterbased adhesive; and                                               
               B. an inner ply of synthetic plastic film having a lower               
          glass transition temperature than the glass transition                      
          temperature of the outer ply, the inner ply further having a                
          first surface that faces the first surface of the outer ply,                
          with the first surface of the inner ply being corona-discharge              
          treated to render it wettable and receptive to a water-based                
          adhesive, and further being adhesively cold laminated by a                  
          water-based adhesive to the first surface of the outer ply at               
          ambient temperature to produce a laminate having high tensile               
          strength and tear resistance, whereby when w the two panels are             
          superposed, the inner plies are then in contact with each other,            
          and when the superposed panels are marginally sealed together by            
          heat and pressure applied thereto, the inner plies are then                 
          caused to fuse but the outer plies are unaffected by the heat               
          and the orientation of the outer plies is unaffected.
