South Africans React to Anele Mdoda’s Post
The internet buzzed with mixed reactions as people weighed in on Anele's post. Some defended the brand, arguing that Tupperware failed to adapt to modern trends and consumer preferences. Others couldn’t help but laugh at the irony of a product being too good—so durable that customers rarely needed to repurchase.
Here’s what some users had to say:
@SoulFairy3 chimed in with a heartfelt response:
"We promise we cook, but we have to buy ingredients in Cyril’s economy 😭 Our Tupperware is basically just for ice cream these days."
@MakiMarish offered a more critical perspective:
"Tupperware killed itself. They should have moved with the times and introduced a disposable container line or changed their marketing strategy altogether. Home Choice and Table Charm might be next if they don’t innovate. Honestly, even a first-year business student could see that Tupperware’s model was outdated."
@mamtungwa_ added a touch of humor:

"Tupperware needs to evolve. We can’t keep using the same designs our moms had back in the day. The world has moved on from those colorful patterns. They’ve got to catch up with the times, or they’ll stay stuck in the past. 😂🤷🏾♀️"
@FknNegus provided an interesting take on the brand’s success being its downfall:
"One reason for Tupperware’s bankruptcy? They made products so durable that people didn’t need to buy them again. Talk about suffering from your own success!"
@kgauzi shared a generational insight:
"Maybe people stopped buying Tupperware because they inherited it from their parents instead of having to purchase it themselves. I’m 52, and I’ve got over 100 Tupperware items from my mom. I’ve never bought a single one!"
