Internet Reacts To Tupperware Bankruptcy News – See Top Memes, Posts
Tupperware Brands (TUP.N) reportedly filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection a few days ago, in response to increasing financial pressures and a fall in the demand for its products. The first Tupperware product was developed in 1946 by the inventor Earl Tupper. It became something of a cultural phenomenon in the 1950s, when “Tupperware parties” became a common form of gathering in different regions. The brand went on to become almost synonymous with household food storage solutions. The news of its bankruptcy has sparked a wide range of reactions on social media.

Tupperware filing for bankruptcy means all the existing ones are now collectibles, and might rise in value.

@eNCA Tupperware has caused a lot of family feuds. My aunt was known to be a product thief. She always asked for leftovers at family functions and never brought them back.— SigaBopha (@Siga_Sixty) September 20, 2024
