 Tupperware is at Target again. I just bought the 30 piece set for $79.99. The quality looks the same to vintage. I cannot wait to put these to use.

I am still using Tupperware that I bought in the early 70s. Some of the lids are needing replacing, but I have so many pieces that I get by with other lids. | ||

Old Tupperware
is damn near indestructible. I wonder about the new. Kind of cool that it's at Target.
I have a lot of old Tupperware ranging from the 50s through the mid 80s. We generally opt for Corningware or other non plastics, but when you want a plastic container, it's hard to beat Tupperware. So, someone lay it on us. What kind of horrible chemicals have been leaching out of the Tupperware and into food for the last seventy years. Sarah | ||

Tupperware containers
I never really like the stuff. Don’t know what all the hype was about. A lot of the knock offs were actually better.
I also didn’t like their original marketing scheme where you had to pay so much for it. I don’t think I own a single piece of it anymore I always find it very hard to get the lids off if the item is cold from being in the refrigerator let alone if it was in the freezer. John. | ||

My favorite plastic storage containers are from takeout chinese food. The rectangular ones are usually marked "microwave safe".

Not a big celery user but found the Tupperware keeper with a dash of water was fine for a few weeks, but had rotten celery soon after. Now I just leave it in the bag it comes in and it lasts for well over a month in the veg. bin of my fridge. Just used some I bought mid December last night and it was fine. | ||

 I rarely use plastic Tupperware or similar stuff. Instead if I want to put some leftovers in the fridge, I use glass Pyrex containers of various shapes and sizes, brand name is Snapware. The lids are plastic, but generally they don't contact the contents. And the glass doesn't exude nasties when it's microwaved. | ||

There was a good documentary about 15 years ago on PBS on Brownie ___ who was the impresario of the Tupperware Party---she was a depression divorcee who did well with Stanley Home Parties in the late depression/WW2; then Earl Tupper got a bunch of war surplus polyethylene up in Massachusetts, and in the early 50s they got together and the Tupperware Party was born.
