A lid assembly for a container comprising:
- a lid formed of a first material and having an upper surface, a lower surface, and a projection extending downward from and around the lower surface;
- a seal formed of a second material and integrally formed with and extending around the projection, the seal having a radially outwardly extending flexible lip for sealing against an inner surface of the container;
- and
- at least two flaps pivotally and removably connected to the upper surface of the lid, each flap having a radially inwardly extending clasp,
- wherein the at least two flaps are movable between respective closed positions where the clasps engage an underside of a lip of the container to secure the lid assembly to the container and compress the radially outwardly extending flexible lip of the seal against the inner surface of the container to seal the lid assembly to the container, and respective open positions where the clasps are disengaged from the underside of the lip of the container.
