I have been a fan and have owned Tupperware for donkey's years. Technically I am a Tupperware rep, but I never sell it and have no interest in doing so. I just joined Tupperware to get a good deal. I did however have an "online party," at the beginning of the year as son wanted some Tupperware for his birthday. He had used some of mine and loved it, so I figured I would have a party and see if anyone else wanted some Tupperware at the same time.
I picked up some of the Fridgesmart containers and I love them. So in case some of you aren't familiar with them I thought I would show you mine.
I have three sizes of containers, but there are four sizes available. The one with the carrots is the medium deep, there will be close to 5 lbs of carrots in there. I normally keep romaine lettuce in it. We buy romaine hearts in packs of three and that holds a pack of three. It will also hold four to six bell peppers. The one with the bell pepper inside is the small deep. I generally keep bell peppers in there. The one with the cucumber in it is the small shallow. I generally keep radishes in them and they store wonderfully.

I subscribe to the belief that all those socks that go missing in the wash turn into Tupperware lids in light of the number of unconnected lids and odd socks that I forever accumulate.
I have gone over to lock'n'lock as I prefer the seals. Tupperware seems harder to come by too. I've never been a fan of tupperware parties. However I still have a Tupperware spaghetti storer from the 1980s and two large canapé servers which are all in regular use. These ones with the freshness seal look interesting - I keep veg in homemade cloth bags
This post bought back memories of when I used to go to Tupperware Parties years ago. I loved the stuff but they seem to have died out here in Uk.
I particularly liked the lettuce crisper.

I have a couple of similar containers that I use if I'm taking something to work that I'll be microwaving.
I haven't used Tupperware in a long time other than some very old pieces that my Mother had and I inherited.
God bless.
I remember going to a couple of Tupperware parties with my mom - kind of a rite of passage at the time. I always found them to be good quality and owned a number of different pieces. I've never heard of anyone having a party for years now but I do remember seeing a set up in the Eaton Centre a few years ago - but they just had samples and you had to place orders.
I too have been switching to glass lock & lock containers - just trying to limit my plastic use - although the weight of glass when carrying food to the office is a consideration. The containers that you show would be too bulky for my apt. sized fridge - I do remember one that used to be used for veggies - it was green and long enough to hold celery or a romaine lettuce - it had a removable bottom that allowed moisture to drain away and did a good job of keeping things fresh.
Are they only available online now?
I did not know if one could still buy tupperware. I did use it in my younger days. And I did like it.
I absolutely love Tupperware! However, I sent damaged pieces for replacement and never got the pieces, so I refuse to buy from then again. I may relent for those pieces to hold salad.
