A tamper evident container assembly (10) includes an open-ended container body (12) having a bottom wall (16) and peripheral side wall (18), the side wall (18) having an upper rim (20) protruding radially outwardly of the peripheral side wall (18). A reusable lid (14) has a top wall (24) and a depending skirt (26), the skirt (26) having a free end (28), a major portion of which is tucked under the upper rim (20) to thereby lock the lid (14) to the container body (12). The depending skirt (26) is further provided in a lower portion thereof with an annular line of weakening (30) extending about the skirt portion to thereby define an annular tear strip (36) inclusive of the free end (28) so that upon removal of the tear strip (36), the lid (14) may be removed from said container (12). A related method of assembling a tamper evident container assembly (10) the steps of: a) filling the container body (12) with contents; b) applying the lid (14) to the container body; and c) tucking a substantial portion of the lower free edge (28) under the rim (20) to thereby provide a tamper evident container. <IMAGE> |
