Stopped using plastic storage containers years ago. Prefer glass with its freezer-->oven-->dishwasher stability. Grew up with Tupperware.

Their fate is sealed........................

Muy bueno!

Dylan Mulvaney is available to promote Tupperware, for the usual and customary fee.

[Torahman]

Question: Where are their products made? Does anybody know?

[Scarpetta]

The thrift stores are filled with used Tupperware.

The younger generation gets it's food from Grub Hub- it comes with own packaging

“...a brand that still does not fully connect with younger consumers” — how in the world do prosaic storage containers “connect” with any consumer, young or old?

I just bought a bunch more ZipLoc containers. They are dirt cheap, snap shut tightly and do the job. I aways hand-wash storage containers because the dishwasher never seems to do the job for old, dried-out, hardened mac & cheese or meatloaf.

Isn’t Tupperware the first plastic storage container and wasn’t it sold door-to-door by women? Then didn’t that grow into “Tupperware parties”?

Products are too good. Like “This End Up” furniture.

Virginia I think.

Yah, I’d imagine it was a novelty back them but, now, like you say you can but one of 25 different types, that do the job, for, probably, a tenth of the cost of TW.

Yes and yes. It was part of the mid-century fascination with modernity and everything new and chemically enhanced. Jello and margarine were part of the same trend.

Walruses and Tupperware love a tight seal.

Tuppernowhere?

[Dilbert San Diego]

Yes , tupperware at one time was only sold by the sales women who did Tupperware parties.

A friend of my wife sold Tupperware. We had a couple of Tupperware parties at our house. I recall my wife got frustrated at the Tupperware sales woman friend, because at the Tupperware party, she became very assertive about trying to recruit my wife’s other friends to be Tupperware sales women.

My wife used to say she really liked the Tupperware products, but it was a pain in the butt to have to deal with a Tupperware sales woman to actually buy the products.

They may want to shift production to producing lids to replace those missing from the Tupperware everybody already owns.

[Valpal1]

Same, glass is just better and thrift stores are full of nice glass dishes.

And microwave. Plus it cleans better when you hold things like tomato sauce.
