Abstract
A container () with lower and upper parts of formed plastic sheeting, is constructed of two identical elements () that can close and latch to each other to form a closed container by turning a second of the elements upside down to make it the upper element, and pressing it down against the lower first element. The lower element includes a base wall () which is the bottommost wall and which has a vertical axis (), upstanding side walls (), and a flange () extending radially away from the top of the side walls. Along a left half () of the lower element, the flange forms an upward projection(s) (), and along the right half () of the lower element the flange forms an upwardly-opening groove (). Each projection and groove extends in a zig-zag line along the flange.
