I claim: 1. A nozzle for attachment to a dispenser for dispensing material, the nozzle comprising: a) a fitting at a first end to facilitate attachment to the dispenser; b) an opening at a second end opposite the first end through which material is dispensed, a center of the opening being located along a central axis of the nozzle, the fitting being wider than the opening, the opening defining a periphery having a lateral width dimension and a height dimension, the opening further comprising arcuate and concave surfaces at widthwise opposite ends that remain of fixed dimension to define an oval periphery, the lateral width dimension substantially exceeding twice the height dimension of the opening; and c) a forwardly-projecting side wall extending from the first end to the opening, the side wall having a peripheral outer surface defined by a concave surface that transitions into an outwardly rounded convex surface that terminates at the opening; d) wherein the side wall further comprises an upper wall and a lower wall, each of the upper and lower walls comprising a portion of the peripheral outer surface such that each of the upper and lower walls comprises a concave surface that transitions into an outwardly rounded convex surface terminating at the opening, e) whereby a substantially constant layer of material is dispensed through the opening and having a width of the opening. 2. A nozzle in accordance with claim 1, wherein the concave surface is closer to the central axis than the fitting. 3. A nozzle in accordance with claim 1, wherein the fitting defines the widest portion of the nozzle, and the concave surface along the forwardly projecting sidewall defines the narrowest of the nozzle between the fitting and the outwardly rounded convex surface. 4. A nozzle in accordance with claim 1, further comprising a cap for covering the nozzle during periods of non-use, a portion of the cap extending around the opening. 5. A nozzle in accordance with claim 4, a portion of the cap extending into the opening for plugging the opening. 6. A nozzle in accordance with claim 1, further comprising a compressible dispenser attached to the nozzle. 7. A dispensable product comprising a dispenser for holding material to be dispensed and a nozzle for attachment to the dispenser and through which material is dispensed, the nozzle further comprising: a) a fitting at a first end to facilitate attachment to the dispenser; b) an opening at a second end opposite the first end through which material is dispensed, a center of the opening being located along a central axis of the nozzle, the fitting being wider than the opening, the opening defining a periphery having a lateral width dimension and a height dimension, the opening further comprising arcuate and concave surfaces at widthwise opposite ends that remain of fixed dimension to define an oval periphery, the lateral width dimension substantially exceeding twice the height dimension of the opening; and c) a forwardly-projecting side wall extending from the first end to the opening, the side wall having a peripheral outer surface defined by a concave surface that transitions into an outwardly rounded convex surface that terminates at the opening; d) wherein the side wall further comprises an upper wall and a lower wall, each of the upper and lower walls comprising a portion of the peripheral outer surface such that each of the upper and lower walls comprises a concave surface that transitions into an outwardly rounded convex surface terminating at the opening, e) whereby a substantially constant layer of material is dispensed through the opening and having a width of the opening. 8. A dispensable product in accordance with claim 7, wherein the concave surface is closer to the central axis than the fitting. 9. A dispensable product in accordance with claim 7, wherein the nozzle is threadingly attached to the dispenser. 10. A dispensable product in accordance with claim 7, wherein the fitting defines the widest portion of the nozzle, and the concave surface along the forwardly projecting sidewall defines the narrowest portion of the nozzle between the fitting and t e outwardly rounded con ex surface. 11. A dispensable product in accordance with claim 7, further comprising a cap for covering the nozzle during periods of non-use, a portion of the cap extending around the opening. 12. A dispensable product in accordance with claim 11, a portion of the cap extending into the opening for plugging the opening. 13. A dispensable product in accordance with claim 7, further comprising material that is a spreadable food product. 14. A dispensable product in accordance with claim 13, further comprising material that is at least one of peanut butter, butter, frosting, mayonnaise, jam, jelly, or soft cheese. 15. A nozzle for attachment to a dispenser for dispensing material, the nozzle comprising: a) a fitting at a first end to facilitate attachment to the dispenser; b) an opening at a second end opposite the first end through which material is dispensed, a center of the opening being located along a central axis of the nozzle, the fitting being wider than the opening, the opening defining a periphery having a lateral width dimension and a height dimension, the opening further comprising arcuate and concave surfaces at widthwise opposite ends that remain of fixed dimension to define an oval periphery, the lateral width dimension substantially exceeding twice the height dimension of the opening; and c) a forwardly-projecting side wall extending from the first end to the opening, the side wall having a peripheral outer surface defined by a concave surface that transitions into an outwardly rounded convex surface that terminates at the opening, the concave surface being closer to the central axis than the convex surface; d) wherein the side wall further comprises an upper wall and a lower wall, each of the upper and lower walls comprising a portion of the peripheral outer surface such that each of the upper and lower walls comprises a concave surface that transitions into an outwardly rounded convex surface terminating at the opening, each concave surface being closer to the central axis than each outwardly rounded convex surface; and e) whereby a substantially constant layer of material is dispensed through the opening and having a width of the opening.
