And it wasn't Earl Tupper who did the marketing. It was a woman (of course I now forget her name), who invented the Tupperware Party and was basically the face of the company for many many years. She was then fired by Tupper and basically erased from the company's history until recently. There's a good documentary on it, very interesting.
