RE: Stained Tupperware

Tupperware has a lifetime guarantee so if you can't get the stains out, you can try contacting a dealer and get them swapped. I had the same problem and they replaced the bowl with no hassle even though it was over 10 years old! (I live in Denmark but I assume the lifetime guarantee is worldwide)

I would recommend Clorox CleanUp- my answer for many cleaning problems. It's fairly inexpensive and works great!

I've recently tried the sun method and to my astonishment it works!

USING "SPRAY & WASH" ON THEM FOR A SHORT TIME WORKS WONDERS! SOMEONE TOLD ME ABOUT THAT HINT A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. WORKS REAL WELL, ALSO CUTS THE GREASE AND STICKY TEXTURE YOU GET AFTER A LONG USE. I HAVE SOME 30 YEARS OLD AND STILL USING. TRY THAT WAY AND SEE HOW YOU LIKE THE RESULTS!!

I will try the dishwasher detergent. I haven't tried that yet. Thanks for that tip!

I buy the liquid dishwasher detergent (generic will work). Make a very strong mix with water and fill the stained plastic. Let it set overnight in the sink. By the next morning, the stains should be gone.

RE: Stained Tupperware

I'm a guest to the forums but remembered visiting back when I had purchased some stained tupperware in a thrift store. It had a heavy yellow stain that I thought would come out and it was cheap so I bought it. I got home and cleaned it and it never came out that way...so, NEXT I tried the leave it in the hot sun for a few days trick and it still did not come out. Eventually I did get the stain out purely as an accident.

Since it had not come out the previous ways, I had deligated it to the container I used when making sourdough starter. I set it outside in the sun to keep warm and after about a few days Ihad a nice starter to make bread with. I put that starter into a glass jar and put it into the fridge. When I cleaned my poor stained Tupperware pitcher...THE STAIN WAS GONE. yay! I guess the little guys liked eating the stain away. Also got a nice loaf of bread. Haha.

If as a last ditch resort you want to try this, just google for any sourdough starter recipe and give it a go. Remember to feed your starter each day. It can take anywhere from 3-7 days to get it foaming right. Even if you kill your starter, your tupperware should in theory be clean right? I have not tried this on my other stained pieces but all I know is I made one starter and my pitcher was bleached nice and clean.
