Tupperware was so ubiquitous that any multiple use plastic container 
seems to get referred to as "Tupperware" whether it is actual Tupper
or some cheap, overseas kock-off from Wally World.

When I wore a younger man's clothes I got dragged to more than one of
the "Tupperware Party" events by my mother and her mother. Talk about
a hen party. Almost as exciting for a young man as watching paint dry.

But the old toots' seem to eat it up. Especially the gossip.  Yawwwwn!
