Well, their business model of selling their stuff with "Tupperware Parties" was en vogue in the 70s, 80s. The world of businesses has changed since then. Tupperware has not. Go figure.

Were tupperware parties actually a thing?! I always figured it was a cover for selling sex toys

TIL Tupperware parties were covers for dildo sales.

Actually, yeah, that makes sense.

Nah, the sex toy parties were their own thing.
