I remember when I was a little boy and my Mom would have Tupperware parties. Remember those? That iconic brand is in trouble and may be going away. This may be the end of an era.
According to USA TODAY, Tupperware stocks are down and they may go out of business because they are having financial trouble. Seems like everywhere you look someone has their own line of Tupperware esque type of products . Other products mimic Tupperware but some are much less expensive.
The company reportedly has hired financial advisors to help them improve their money structure and money problems. It would be a shame if the brand went away. I just remember the “burp”, that way you knew the container was sealed and its contents would stay fresh. Tupperware has been around since 1946.

This Brunch Classic Is North Carolina's Favorite Comfort Food
There is just something about your favorite comfort food. While I won’t binge on them constantly, I enjoy some good down-home southern home cooking from time to time. Personally for me when I think of comfort foods I think of things like mac and cheese, chicken pot pie, or a grilled cheese sandwich. But those are just a few of the endless examples. The Oxford Dictionary defines comfort foods as “food that provides consolation or a feeling of well-being, typically any with a high sugar or other carbohydrate content and associated with childhood or home cooking.”
The researchers over at E-Conolight analyzed Google search data to determine the most popular comfort foods in each state. And by popular they mean the most searched for. And there were some fantastic foods that made the list including chicken and dumplings, cheese grits, pot roast, stuffing, and chili. In fact, reading this list has made me hungry for lunch. And not the salad I was planning on having either. But what did the data show as the most popular comfort food in North Carolina? It’s a good one that combines both sweet and salty and honestly what more can you ask of a food?
