The FFS plastic container for a dairy product or similar food composition is provided with a body having a side wall extending along a longitudinal axis from a bottom to a top that defines a wide upper opening. The container, which is provided with a generally planar annular flange integral with the body and extending around the upper opening, has a decorative layer around the side wall. The upper portion of the side wall tapers toward the opening. Either a peripheral bulge is formed in the side wall at a junction between the upper portion and a lower portion, or the lower portion has a generally cylindrical shape. The decorative layer is defined by a plastic sleeve that includes a shrink film annularly secured to the upper portion, the sleeve extending adjacent or over the junction.

The flanged container for a dairy product or similar food composition is provided with a hollow body and a generally planar annular flange connected to the top of the body, the flange having outer straight side edges and an inner edge defining a circular upper opening of the container. The body has a planar bottom and a lower portion tapering from a generally cylindrical upper portion toward the bottom in a curved manner. The lower portion has a height hin some embodiments not less than 14 mm and the ratio h/H is less than 2:5 where H is the height of the container. The side wall of the body has a thickness profile such that the average thickness of the lower portion is more than the average thickness of the upper portion. Several identical containers can be grouped in a pack with breakable junctions at the outer straight side edges.
