tupperware  

Définition

  • Tupperware, invented in 1946 in the New England region of the United States by amateur designer Earl Silas Tupper, popularized polyethylene as a domestic plastic used for food storage and as fancy goods in the home. Using the party-plan direct-sales method, Tupperware and Tupperware parties came to define a new form of postwar sociality based around informal food consumption and conspicuous consumerism.
