A container with a lid both consisting of plastic material are of oval or similar shape with substantially semi-circular short sides (6) and long sides (8) which are straight or have a large radius of curvature in relation to the radius of curvature of the short sides. The edge portion of the lid has a peripheral edge flange which encloses an edge portion positioned at the mouth of the container and at its surface facing this edge portion has an inwardly directed continuous projection for releasably retaining the lid to the container. The downwardly directed edge flange of the lid is between the short sides and the long sides divided by means of vertical slots (40) for providing edge flange sections (36, 28) at the short sides and the long sides which are separated from each other. Above the inwardly directed projection the edge flange sections of the short sides have a hinge which allows that the projection is at the edge flange sections of the short sides displaced from the retaining position. <IMAGE> <IMAGE> |
