Abstract
The present disclosure relates generally to containers and container lids. In at least one embodiment, the disclosed containers and container lids provide a liquid-tight seal with the inclusion of a separately attached ring that generally eliminates material-trapping seams. For example, in certain embodiments, a container and a container ring for attaching to the rim of the container is disclosed. In these embodiments, the container ring attaches to the rim of the container such that a liquid-tight vertical seal is formed, thereby reducing or eliminating material-trapping seams.
