Zusammenfassung:	A flexible food package comprises a bottom end, a top end, and a side wall incorporating a twistable portion having increased dead fold characteristics than adjacent portions of the side wall. The twistable portion has at least a first section and a second section each having a maximum width and joined by at least a third section having a minimum width less than the maximum width of each of the first and second section. The third section is configured to permit the first and second sections to twist about the third section. The twistable portion is configured to twist together with adjacent portions of the side wall to restrict access to an access opening formed after opening of the top end. A method of manufacturing reclosable flexible packages including twistable portions is also provided.
