Abstract
A stopper for a food jar is described that may be used to store and transport food items. The stopper includes a bottom wall and a sidewall. The stopper includes one or more vent passages connecting the bottom wall and the sidewall to provide pressure relief. A vent gasket is provided at the bottom wall that opens when pressure inside of the container is elevated to allow air to pass into the vent passages and vent outside of the container.
