1. A recloseable liner-container assembly, comprising:

  • a container including opposing top and bottom walls, opposing front and back walls, and opposing side walls, the side walls and front wall including a contiguous horizontal tear strip for opening up the container from a sealed form to form a lid hingedly attached to a base section;

    a liner constructed and arranged for placement within the container and including a front panel and opposing side panels for fitting the liner within the container, the front panel having an outer surface adjacent to an inner surface of the container front wall; and

    wherein the liner front panel includes a flap and a flap-receiving portion disposed in forcibly displaceable mutual engagement such that opening the container lid exerts a force which disengages the mutual engagement between the flap and the flap-receiving portion, and reclosing the lid leads to snap re-engagement of the flap and the flap-receiving portion.
