Abstract (en)

A reclosable food package (10) for sliced food products to be maintained in a shingled arrangement and to provide convenient top access to the food product, the package including a rigid base member (12) forming a compartment for receiving the food product and a rigid lid (14) secured to the base. Advantageously, the base member (12) includes a bottom wall (26) and side wall portions (28a,28b) that are configured to hold the food product in a shingled arrangement. The bottom wall (26) further includes at least one channel (32a-d) that facilitates removal of the food product and cooperates to provide stability when the package is placed in an upright or horizontal position resting upon its bottom wall. The lid (14) also has an inwardly extending annular bead (46) which provides an audible sound when the lid is being placed upon the base.
