A container for preserving the freshness of a stored food product is disclosed. The container has a receptacle with a piston and seal arrangement that creates a variable volume for food storage. A vent and seal arrangement allows for the removal of air as the piston is moved within the receptacle to reduce the volume within. A removable engaging member pushes the piston upward in order to reduce the inner volume of the container as the food stored in the container is consumed. This reduction in space and associated removal of air inhibit the oxidation and spoilage of many popular foods such as guacamole. With the engaging member removed, the container is also useful for serving the stored food product.

A food carrier system including a food carrier and one or more food containers. The food carrier having a base portion and a lid portion, where the lid portion can include one or more lid wells. Each lid well can include one or more tiers, each tier configured to receive a food container having a preferred size and dimension. The base portion can include one or more base wells, also configured to receive one or more food containers. The lid portion and base portion can be secured to one another by way of a securing mechanism.

The receptacle including stacking lugs to help reduce vacuum and friction when de-nesting the receptacles. The receptacle including a lid that helps when storing certain types of goods and/or serves as a seat. A septum or receptacle molded into the lid to allow for injection of inert gases or flushing headspace.

STACKABLES consists of 3 food bowls/strainers stacked upright and connected together using posts. These posts securely connect to the molded, closed stem in the bottom of each bowl/strainer. Each bowl has an accompanying airtight lid. There is an optional tray that may be used as a base of the tower.

A food jar provides an individual the ability to transport food or drink. The food jar includes a container and a lid. The container has a closed bottom end, an open upper end, and a sidewall defining a receiving space for holding food or drink. The lid is removably connected to the container. The lid includes a stopper having a valve. The stopper is positioned in the open upper end of the container. The valve is configured in the stopper for removing air from the receiving space of the container through an outlet passage through the stopper and then through a channel between the threading of the lid and the container.

The invention disclosed herein provides a system and method of configuration of a rotation influencing culinary mixing container. The system provides even the most novice users a system of providing even coating of spices, seasoning, and other dry or wet ingredients to food items. The uniquely configured curved base and domed lid of the system work to achieve the uniform coating. The rotation influencing culinary mixing container system includes a hollow cavity-defining main body constructed of two hemispheres. The two hemispheres include a base bowl lower hemisphere and a domed lid upper hemisphere. The base bowl lower hemisphere is defined by a linear upper surface with a substantially circular opening in the upper surface and a semi-spherical cavity. The domed lid upper hemisphere is defined by a linear lower surface with a substantially circular opening in the lower surface and a semi-spherical cavity.
