Abstract: A package comprises a container having an open end defined by end structure forming a sealing portion and a rim surrounding the open end and a tamper evident lid closing the container end. The lid comprises seal structure in sealing engagement with the container sealing portion and a skirt disposed about the end structure and extending from the rim along the container in a direction away from the open end. The skirt defines a first skirt portion adjacent the rim and a second tear strip portion extending from the first skirt portion. The skirt portions are connected by a plurality of narrow necks extending between skirt perforations. Latching projections formed in the tear strip portion extend inwardly from the skirt in a direction toward the end opening. The projections latch with the container rim and engage the container rim for tearing the necks to strip off the tear strip when the lid is removed from the container.
