Abstract

The present invention provides a container for fermented foods that temporarily gathers gas, generated by fermented foods contained in the container, and allows the gas to be discharged to the outside at an appropriate time. The fermented food container includes a container body having a plurality of locking protrusions provided around the container body. The fermented food container further includes an inner lid to close the open top of the container body, with an inner valve unit provided on the inner lid. The fermented food container further includes an outer lid coupled to the container body and spaced apart from the inner lid by a predetermined distance, thus defining a gas storage space between the inner lid and the outer lid, with an outer valve unit provided on the outer lid. The fermented food container further includes a plurality of locking flaps provided on at least one of the inner lid and the outer lid. The fermented food container can slow down the oxidization of fermented foods, thereby maintaining the freshness and taste of the fermented foods. Furthermore, the fermented food container lets a user know an appropriate time to discharge the gas from the gas storage space, using the gas volume gauge rod, thus preventing a refrigerator in which the fermented food container is stored from absorbing the bad food smell.
