An atmosphere controlled, resealable foodstuff container includes a base
tray and a cover. The cover and base tray are constructed of a
substantially gas impermeable material. The cover and base tray include
resealing members. When connected, the cover and base tray define a
generally enclosed and sealed interior space for foodstuffs. The
container includes at least one atmosphere control member, such as a
membrane, which controls the flow of gases through an opening in the
container. The member may be located over a recessed opening in the cover
to permit the containers to be stacked without gas flow interference. A
label extends over the recess, thus obscuring the membrane from view to
the purchaser without affecting the membrane atmosphere control function.
The base tray may be opaque for use as a serving tray and the cover
transparent to permit viewing of the product.
