How do you get the smell out of plastic glasses and bowls? My tupperware has a musty smell. I have tried soda.

I have used each of these at different times with success:
- crumple up newspaper and stuff inside with the lid on and leave for a day or two. take out and repeat with new newspaper if needed.
- put upside down out on the grass outside...as long as it is not windy out :-)
- put out in the sun
- put some baking soda in with the lid on and leave for several days. repeat if necessary.
I have always used a mix of baking soda and vinegar in hot soapy water. Allow to sit for about 20 minutes then use a scrubber pad to scrub. Rinse in very hot water then in very cold and let air dry.
I like to store the lids on my tupperware so I dont have to search for them, and fortunately i have room to do so. I put in a coffee filter and then close the top almost all the way and they don't have a musty smell!
