A container assembly for foods includes a container portion, a cover portion hingeably attached to the container portion along a hinge axis, a handle portion on the container portion, and a pivot tab on the cover portion. The handle portion extends outwardly from the container portion adjacent the hinge axis and it includes an outwardly extending first portion having an opening therein and a second portion which extends downwardly from the first portion. The pivot tab is attached to the cover portion so that it is operable by a user for pivoting the cover portion to an open position, and so that the pivot tab passes downwardly through the opening in the first portion of the handle portion as the cover portion is pivoted to an open position.
