Uncle Bobbys Tupperware Organization: Embracing Chaos Amidst the Avalanche of Plastic

Dear Uncle Bobby, Why is it that every time I open my Tupperware cabinet, it’s like a plastic avalanche waiting to happen? And no matter how many containers I have, none of the lids ever seem to fit. Is there a way to keep it organized?


Yours in Tupperware Turmoil,,
Lidless in the Kitchen


Oh bless you, Lidless, for asking the question that has haunted households since the dawn of leftovers. You think there’s a way to keep your Tupperware organized? That’s adorable. You might as well try alphabetizing glitter.

That cabinet isn’t for food storage. It’s a trap. A booby-trapped vault of chaos designed to punish you for daring to save half a sandwich. You open the door and FOOM—plastic containers launch themselves at your face like you just activated some kind of lunchbox defense system.

And let’s talk about those lids.

You could have 47 containers and still not find a matching lid. Because they don’t match. They multiply and migrate when you’re not looking. You think you’re storing leftovers—you’re actually participating in a complex ecosystem where lids evolve independently of their containers.

And God forbid you try to stack them neatly.

The moment you close that cabinet?

They shift. They expand. They plan their revenge.

Now, some folks say to “declutter” and “match everything up.” No, no. That’s how they win. Uncle Bobby’s system is simple:

- Keep one container of each size.

- Throw the rest into a mystery bin.

- When you need one, dump it all out like a raccoon going through garbage.

- Boom. Instant productivity and a deep sense of humility.

And if someone judges your system? Hand them a rogue lid and say, “Find the match, genius.”

In summary, Lidless, the Tupperware cabinet isn’t meant to be conquered. It’s meant to remind you that you are not in charge here.

Good luck. And may your leftovers be slightly less cursed.
