TikTok viral hack to clean stained plastic boxes

We all have those tupperware boxes with stains that don't seem to budge.

But don't throw them out - one TikTok user has revealed a clever hack to make your lunch boxes squeaky clean again without lots of scrubbing.

@adikempler has posted a video showing us how to get rid of those greasy stains. She claims it has 'saved so many of her tupperware friends'.

The whole process only takes just over a minute and all you need is some washing up liquid, warm water and kitchen roll.

Adi said: "So what you are going to want to do is put a little bit of dish soap into the tupperware, add some warm water.

"Then you are going to want to add a few pieces of ripped up paper towel, and then seal it up.

"And then get to shaking, shake it pretty vigorously. I would say between 45 seconds to a minute.

"You will see once you rinse it out, it is completely clean, it doesn't have that greasy feel anymore.

"I want to see everyone try it."

The hack has got over 500,000 likes on TikTok - try it and see if it works for you!
