I’ll provide the fun fact since I’m a wrestling fan: This character’s name is Brother Love. He was the first manager of The Undertaker. He brought him into the WWF. As Brother Love. Naturally the juxtaposition was hilarious. Didn’t seem to hurt Undertaker’s career too much.
It’s an organic compound present in tomatoes called carotine that is liposoluble but hydrophobic so the normal water and dish soap rolls right over it. In order to get rid of it pour a good amount of oil and dish soap into the Tupperware and scrub all over with a paper towel, rinse and behold the magic
Nah, bleach is the correct way. Soak in bleach/water. No scrubbing or nonsense needed.
I would argue it’s also because most plastic isn’t actually very smooth and these oils get caught in the “pores.” It’s much harder to remove spaghetti stains from tupperware than from glass.
The tomato sauce has lycopene (sp? ) in it, which is a hydrophobic molecule, making it very difficult to just wash off. You can take a stick of butter on rub it all over the inside of the container, then put a paper towel in and fill it about half the way with water. Then put the lid back on and shake the shit out it. You should get it pretty cleaned off that way.
So far literally no one has said the real and correct way to remove the stains. Fill sink with some water. Add bleach, let me soak for an hour or so. Perfectly back to normal. For particularly bad stains, soak overnight. Any decent restaurant or kitchen bleaches their kitchen utensils and containers. Back when I had my food handlers card many moons ago bleaching was required.
For some reason my mom cares more about the tupperware than me
It never gonna give her up, nor will it ever let her down. And it certainly will not abandon her.
Keep the jar and put the sauce back in it and put only the noodles into the Tupperware.
How do you separate noodles and sauce without making a nightmarish mess? Do you wring the saucy noodles with your hands?
Normal folks put pasta on their plate and then sauce. They aren’t cooked together, and only combined when plated unless you are wasted and trying to cook it on a George Forman grill or something.
Dude no. Combine asap for best adhesion. This nightmare of naked pasta with sauce plopped on it that you are supposed to mix yourself is a culinary atrocity.
Try turmeric it will look like uranium glass
