Abstract

The present invention overcomes many of the shortcomings inherent in previous containers for packaging potato chips, corn based chips, cookies or the like. The improved implosion-resistant container of the present invention utilizes a collection of stress dissipating mechanisms (10) that counteract the forces causing thermo-plastic container deformation, implosion and loss of seal integrity. This collection of stress dissipating mechanisms, employed collectively or separately, allows a container for storing fragile food products to be fashioned as a relatively lightweight, thin-walled blow molded thermo-plastic container that is capable of adapting to changing environmental conditions while maintaining its visual aesthetic appearance.
