1. A combination container and lid, for use as an air-tight pet food storage bin, with said lid and said container configured to be easily joined during assembly, but further configured to be difficult to separate once assembled together and in subsequent use for storing pet food therein; said lid comprising: a top wall;a lip extending away from at least a portion of said top wall;a piano hinge pin; andtwo or more protrusions protruding from said top wall and configured to fixedly support said piano hinge pin;said container comprising: a base;a first side wall and a second side wall, each said first and second side walls extending away from said base;a front wall and a rear wall, each said front and rear walls extending away from said base, and each said front and rear walls also extending between said first side wall and said second side wall to form a cavity;two or more hinge knuckles, each said two or more hinge knuckles comprising a hook protruding away from an end of said rear wall being distal from said base, each said hook configured to pivotally receive a portion of said piano hinge pin therein; andtwo or more elongated protrusions, each configured to respectively extend away from said end of said rear wall distal from said base and toward an axis of said two or more hooks, and each of said two or more elongated protrusions positioned proximate to a respective one of said hooks;wherein said lid is pivotally joined with said container, by said piano hinge pin of said lid configured to be received, transversely with respect to said axis of said two or more hooks, through an opening between said two or more elongated protrusions and said hooks, to be pivotally received within said hooks; andwherein said piano hinge pin of said lid is retained in said pivotal relation with said hooks, by an end of each of said two or more elongated protrusions configured to engage and support said piano hinge pin, to impede removal of said piano hinge pin from said hooks, and to configure said pivotal joint to obstruct separation of said lid and said container once assembled together, said end of each said elongated protrusion comprising a truncated cylindrical surface. 2. The combination container and lid according to claim 1, wherein said truncated cylindrical surface at each said end of each of said elongated protrusions comprises a curved surface with an arc of less than 180 degrees. 3. The combination container and lid according to claim 2, wherein said lid comprises a lock member hinged to said lid, and configured to engage a lip on said container in a locked position. 4. A combination container and lid; said lid comprising: a top wall;a lip extending away from at least a portion of said top wall;a piano hinge pin; andtwo or more protrusions protruding from said top wall and configured to support said piano hinge pin;said container comprising: a base;a first side wall and a second side wall, each extending away from said base;a front wall and a rear wall, each extending away from said base, and each said front and rear walls also extending between said first side wall and said second side wall to form a cavity;two or more hinge hooks protruding away from an end of said rear wall being distal from said base, each said hinge hook configured to pivotally receive a portion of said piano hinge pin therein; andtwo or more elongated protrusions, each configured to respectively extend away from said end of said rear wall distal from said base and toward an axis of said two or more hooks, and each of said two or more elongated protrusions positioned proximate to a respective one of said hooks;wherein said lid is pivotally joined with said container, by said piano hinge pin of said lid configured to be received, transversely with respect to said axis of said two or more hooks, through an opening between said two or more elongated protrusions and said hooks, to be pivotally received within said hooks; andwherein said piano hinge pin of said lid is retained in said pivotal relation with said hooks, by an end of each of said two or more elongated protrusions configured to engage and support said piano hinge pin, to impede removal of said piano hinge pin from said hooks, and to configure said pivotal joint to obstruct separation of said lid and said container once assembled together, said end of each said elongated protrusion comprising a truncated cylindrical surface. 5. The combination container and lid according to claim 4, wherein said truncated cylindrical surface at each said end of each of said elongated protrusions comprises a curved surface with an arc of less than 180 degrees. 6. The combination container and lid according to claim 5 wherein each of said two or more hinge hooks and each of said two or more elongated protrusions are formed of a plastic material. 7. The combination container and lid according to claim 6, wherein said lid comprises a lock member hinged to said lid, and configured to engage a lip on said container in a locked position. 8. The combination container and lid according to claim 7 wherein said lock member is configured to provide an air tight seal between said lid and said container. 9. The combination container and lid according to claim 3 wherein each said hook of said two or more hinge knuckles and each of said two or more elongated protrusions are formed of a plastic material. 10. The combination container and lid according to claim 3 wherein said hinged lock member is configured to provide an air tight seal between said lid and said container.
