I never saw the appeal of Tupperware, to be honest. Pyrex seemed like the far superior storage option for nearly all use cases. Maybe it was a housewife thing.

- pupppet 2y agoTupperware should have died with the invention of the microwave. You inevitably want to heat things up in the microwave and grease burns will forever stain the material.
- aantix 2y agoFeels like there are similar brands that have still flourished, mostly thinking of Pampered Chef?
- linsomniac 2y agoLPT: Always transfer the food you're microwaving from the storage container to a dish. That prevents the problems you mention, plus it helps with reasonable portion sizes.
- hmmm-i-wonder 2y agoAlternatively, when storing food, portion it into glass containers that can quickly be microwaved. That's our approach, makes lunches both when working at home and in office easy and we're more likely to actually eat/finish the leftovers before they go bad.
- WaitWaitWha 2y agoYes PYREX but not pyrex [0]. In my experience pyrex is significantly lower quality and of course material. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrex https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrex
