A sealed container includes a base jar for containing a substance and a removable lid therefor. The base jar includes an upper portion with a screw thread and an upper wall extending inwardly and upwardly therefrom having a circular brim which defines a wide mouth opening, a brim portion with at least a 10% reduction, and an inside edge. The removable lid includes an encircling member extending downwardly from a top wall with a mating screw thread for the screw thread of the base jar. For sealing with the base jar, the removable lid also includes a circular projection extending downwardly from the lid which engages and seals with the circular brim. For additional sealing, the removable lid further includes a circular flexible flange extending downwardly from the lid having a tip which is radially flexed relative to a remainder of the flange upon engagement with an upper wall of the jar to seal therewith. For further sealing and primary sealing, the top wall of the lid also includes a circular centering and sealing rim which, before engagement of the circular projection with the circular brim, engages the inside edge of the circular brim to form a seal therebetween as well as to positively locate the circular projection vertically adjacent the circular brim. The reduction is preferably an arc shaped concavity provided along an inside surface which is also rounded adjacent the inside edge, and preferably the circular projection is closer to centering rim than to the flexible flange.
