A month? More like 35 years. That's how long ago some of those lids were actually made. I hated washing those fuckin things, with their shitty ass ripple design getting food all stuck up in there.

They are 35 years model, with a measurable age of 35 years. But the researchers actually got brand new products, of current models from the store yesterday.

for me the ripple design wasn't even a problem, but i dread the days i have to wash something that had cooked meat in them with that plastic.

Wait

that's just my cabinet.

I don't think I have clearance for this

This makes me twitch a little. I have the exact same cabinet in my kitchen. How can it be? It's so randomized that it's antientropic!

My aunt always said: Don't touch my Tupperware!

Bro I grew up with a cabinet just like that, cleaning those lids was a nightmare, but now all my lids end up cracked/broken. I'm losing the battle of the Tupperware wars!!

After years of thought I have come to the conclusion that the only sane way to store tupperware is with each container attached to its lid, everything stacked. I know you end up having room for like half the tupperware that way but I think it's the only way.

You call it banal but here I am trying to put away some leftovers and I'm up a creek with no lids

[–] Nugget@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago

IKEA has two sizes (one, two) of Tupperware that use the same lid size and it's amazing. It's like only having matching socks.

If this isn’t an SCP, it needs to be.
