Abstract
A container for storing food includes a container wall with a top edge and a lid. The lid includes a lid edge with a sealing profile which contacts the top edge of the container wall when the container is closed, an opening with a valve which can have air be sucked therethrough when the container is closed so as to obtain a negative pressure inside the container, the negative pressure being lower than atmospheric pressure, a lid interior region, and a flexible profile which attaches the lid interior region to the lid edge so as to form a variable-height support of the lid interior region. The flexible profile maintains the lid interior region in an upper position if the negative pressure is not present and allows for a movement of the lid interior region into a lower position if the negative pressure is present.
