Secret cleaning tip takes years off your Tupperware's appearance
- Replies 11
If you're anything like us here at the Seniors Discount Club, you've likely amassed quite a collection of Tupperware over the years. Tupperware has been a faithful companion, keeping our food fresh and easily transportable. But as handy as these kitchen staples may be, they're also notorious for picking up stubborn stains that won't budge, no matter how hard we scrub.
Well, dear members, it's time to put down your sponges and step away from the dishwasher. One of our fellow Tupperware enthusiasts, a mother who goes by @ariganja on social media, has shared a genius solution that promises to remove even the most stubborn of stains and leave your Tupperware looking brand new. Best of all, this miracle solution uses items you likely already have in your kitchen!
Amassing an impressive 19,400 likes and over 1,000 shares, the mum's step-by-step video tutorial takes viewers through her simple, yet incredibly effective, cleaning method. Forget that age-old routine of scrubbing furiously at your Tupperware, hoping to make a dent in seemingly everlasting stains. This cleaning tip is a veritable game-changer.
Here's how it works. Start by taking a paper towel and ripping off a few pieces. Fill your stained Tupperware container with a small amount of hot water - about halfway should do the trick. Add a little bit of dishwashing liquid, and then toss your paper towel pieces into the container.
Next, ensure your lid is tightly secured (if, like many of us, you're unable to locate the elusive matching lid, a suitable alternative will do). Shake the container vigorously, causing the soapy water and paper towel mixture to create a foamy solution that works its magic on that pesky built-up grease and grime. Be prepared to shake for several minutes, and if you're worried about spillage, feel free to shake over the sink for a mess-free experience.

Though the video doesn't specify the exact duration of shaking required, the mum displays the stunning end result: a squeaky clean, grease-free Tupperware container that looks as good as the day you bought it.
Comments such as 'How!? What is this black magic!? Also, thank you!' and 'Tupperware witchcraft!' showcase just how impressed we all are with this simple yet effective method.
One particularly grateful member stated, 'This is so cool because this has happened to me all the time, and I throw them away. Will try this.'
Of course, as with any online tutorial, there's always a hint of relatable humour. One cheeky user quipped, 'Bold of you to assume we all know where our lids are.'
For those of us with stainless steel pots and pans, another great way to remove hardened grease is by using salt and lemon. Cut up a lemon, sprinkle some salt into the pan, and then use the lemon as an abrasive by rubbing the salt paste in circular motions with the lemon. You won’t believe just how clean your pots will look after just one use of this DIY cleaner!
So, members, there you have it—a revolutionary cleaning method that breathes new life into your old, stained Tupperware. Give it a try yourself and see just how satisfying it is to watch those stubborn stains disappear before your very eyes. Guaranteed to make your Tupperware look as good as new!
