Brilio.net - There are many types of lunch boxes or food containers, both for storing cakes or food supplies when traveling. Tupperware lunch boxes are a mainstay for many mothers, because they are considered durable and have a cool design. On the other hand, the price of these jars is also known to be relatively high, so they are quite valuable objects in the house.
It's not surprising that many mothers are automatically furious when they find family members have lost Tupperware. However, this netizen who is familiarly called Kate shared a different experience about the Tupperware eating place through her upload to the TikTok account @sweeticetea96.

Instead of disappearing, this woman actually made her Tupperware change shape because it melted.
"Short, concise, slow," he wrote in the video caption, quoted by BrilioFood from TikTok @sweeticetea96 on Monday (22/7).

After investigating, the food container could melt because he heated the food directly with the container in the air fryer. As a result, the shape of Tupperware, which was previously a straight box, became wavy.
The video showing melted Tupperware on Kate's TikTok account @sweeticetea96 immediately received a lot of attention from netizens. Not a few people commented hilariously or warned Kate to be prepared for her mother's response when she found out about the condition of the jar.
"Look for a boarding house, as long as there's a mattress, I'd say that's fine. Just for those of you who want," wrote TikTok @miakkkkkss.
"The Tupperware issue is quite complicated, it seems like it can't be negotiated, it's better to be mentally prepared and just pack clothes," said TikTok @Icaa.
"You don't need to say anything... go to the sub-district and try to apply for separation yourself, independently," said TikTok @el.
Apart from that, a number of netizens also shared other experiences regarding their mothers' responses when they found out that the Tupperware jar had not been saved.
"My mother's Tupperware was lost twice... she lost it from 2016 until now, we're still talking about it," said TikTok @yura.
"The big blue Tupperware Legend closes green, did you know? I missed it from Friday to Monday, my mother ignored me for 4 days," said TikTok @Angelo.
"My mother's tupperware was lost by my sister when she was still in elementary school. Her elementary school teacher told her to help me look for the tupperware until I found it," said TikTok @yipiwyipiww.
Now, speaking of Tupperware melting when heated, this could happen if the jar is not heat resistant. That's why it's important to know how to choose a jar that is safe to heat in an air fryer or microwave.
You can choose Tupperware which is specifically designed to be heat resistant and can be used in the microwave. Usually, there is a label or instructions provided by the manufacturer. Some Tupperware may have specific information regarding their heat resistance capabilities.
Microwave-safe Tupperware can usually withstand temperatures up to about 120 degrees Celsius (250 degrees Fahrenheit). However, this is not necessarily resistant enough for the temperatures required in an air fryer which can reach more than 200 degrees Celsius (400 degrees Fahrenheit).
On the other hand, avoid using Tupperware or plastic containers with recycling code numbers that are not safe for heating food. For example, plastics with codes number 3 (PVC), number 6 (PS), and number 7 (which are not relabeled) are not recommended for heating because they can release dangerous substances.
