<p>A storage container for storing food items includes a base providing a storage cavity accessible by an opening and a detachable lid for covering the opening and enclosing the storage cavity. The lid may include a one-way valve to facilitate evacuation of the storage cavity after the lid has been attached. To provide a substantially air tight seal between the base and lid, a sealing member is included. The sealing member can be comprised of any suitable resilient material such as a thermoplastic elastomer. The sealing member can be integrally bonded to either the base or the lid by, for example, an overmolding process or a co-extrusion process.</p>
