The plastic container for a molded food product is provided with a hollow body, a bottom and a discharge opening. Frangible connections are distributed in the bottom and thus several distinct bottom regions each including at least one of the frangible connections are defined. A plastic actuating member that is movable relative to the bottom outer edge is configured to actuate simultaneous break of each of the frangible connections, so as to form at least three spaced vent holes in the bottom. The vent holes are arranged around the single actuation portion of the actuating member. Food product can be easily released as one block through the opening, after the container has been unsealed and turned upside down.
