That’s when I stumbled upon the Tupperware Soup Mug. It is a soup mug (5.7 x 4.9 x 3.4 inches) that goes from refrigerator to microwave to table. Its volume is rated at sixteen ounces. The item comes in a variety of colors; Orange, smokey grey, aqua, lime green, clear and pink. They retail for around $15.00 and if you’re interested in purchasing one check with your local tupperware supplier or look on Amazon.com. So I decided to give it a try.
When I received the item, I was impressed at the quality item I had received. As expected with Tupperware, it was a nice thick plastic and the lid fit perfectly. The product claims to form a hermetic seal when closed, and so far that has held true for me. I’ve never once seen anything leak from mine. The product also has a fill to line clearly labeled inside, so everyone, including the smallest children or the elderly can easily and clearly see how high to fill the bowl without having to worry about it overflowing. It has a vented seal that allows hot air to escape while being microwaved, but since it’s vented, only steam can escape; nothing else can boil or bubble or pop out and create a mess of splatters in the microwave. It has a handle that stays cool and won’t heat up so when your food is heated as hot as you want it, the bowl handle won’t burn any fingers while trying to get it out of the microwave. Again, this is great especially for children. And best of all, it’s dishwasher safe, so when I’m done, I can throw it in the dishwasher.
This item has really made my life so helpful. I can now throw my leftovers from dinner in one of these mugs, and then when I’m ready to eat it, I just pop it in the microwave. I can put food in the cup and then when my child is ready to eat, he can easily heat it up himself without fear of him making a mess or burning himself on a hot bowl. We can put lunch in a bowl, and since the bowl won’t leak or break, I have no concerns having it roll around in a lunch bag, box or purse. And we can also make hot chocolate in the microwave without worrying about burning our fingers on hot ceramic mugs . This product truly is wonderful, unique and has so many uses.
Also, as with all Tupperware products, it comes with Tupperwares lifetime warranty against chipping, cracking, breaking, and peeling.
