sterilized canned food container


Explanation:
the 'container' may be made of metal, glass or any other material, e.g. can, canning jar, etc.

'konzerva' is really a container of 'canned food'

the original 'canned food' was in a 'can', i.e. 'tin can', translated as 'plechovka', i.e. a container made of sheet metal, specifically tin, later aluminium
