A metal can (40) for preserving a food product sterilised by heat treatment after closing the can, is made up of an integral body forming the bottom (41) and the side wall (43) of the can, and a lid (42) are mounted on the body in order to seal the latter, the minimum thickness of the side wall (43) being between 20% and 60% of the thickness of the centre of the bottom (41). The height of the can (40) is between 1.5 and 3.5 times the width thereof, and the bottom (41) and/or the lid (42) of the can has a central wall (411, 421) with an outwardly convex shape, connected to the side wall (43) by a peripheral groove (410) opening up towards the outside.
