Today i wanna give an environmental awareness lecture!!! And it is an ad. But because it is something very true to my heart, i plead you to read until the end. 🙂
Given that i am supposed to be very bimbotic and everything, it almost sounds ridiculously idiotic for me to say that i want to save the world. But it is true. I really do strongly believe in protecting the environment, and it is really something that i do preach and practice.
Do you know what Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei, 100,000,000 PET bottles are used every year?
and that 85,000,000 of them end up as garbage?
By the way PET bottles are your normal plastic mineral water/soft drink bottles. It is actually polyethylene terephthalate bottles, but i’m supposed to be too bimbotic to know that, so just pretend that i didn’t know.
Every time i throw away a plastic bottle, my heart cries. So imagine when i go to concerts or some outdoor event where they move and distribute cartons and cartons of mineral water and styrofoam lunch boxes. I always always wonder where they end up going, and i always secretly wish that one day the factories will stop producing all these plastic packaging completely, and let the human figure themselves out. Go back to banana leaves or whatever.
I know you can argue that i’m still polluting the environment with everything that i’m doing every single second while i’m still alive. I switch on the aircon. I don’t use old newspaper to wipe my buttock after toilet routine. I but too muc make up. Etc etc etc. But little little changes is what i can start with. Nothing that will make Port Dickson’s sea water turquoise in one day, nothing that will even give a remotely significant change. But at least i know there’s something i can do. And all of you can do.
For example, start with something as simple as refusing to take a plastic bag whenever you can. That’s why i love BIG HANDBAGS! 😀
Or tapao your lunch with your own tupperware. I can show you how.
#1
You can just use a tupperware. It’s called a Reheatable Divided Lunch Box.
#2
I love how it has different compartments so you can tapao your favorite Japanese food decorated nicely!
Then for dinner i will go to some dai pai dong to tapao using the tupperware!
#3
Kai fan
#4
Somehow tapaoing in tupperware make it looks even yummier because it looks like some homecook grandma bento box.
#5
Cover up!
#6
Crystal Wave Soup Mug to tapao the soup!
#8
And the tupperware can be kept in this amazing little bag that fits everything just nicely (no more worrying about messy lunchbox/spilled curry etc).
#9
And it looks nice!
I teach you a trick ok. If you want to smuggle food in to places that doesn’t allow outside food (restaurants, cinema, concert halls), this is where the bag comes in handy. People won’t even suspect that there’s food inside. Unless the whole world starts using it and it becomes a fashion statement.
Ok now please remember that you didn’t read the above paragraph from cheeserland.com. Thanks.
#10
And back home, i can has noms!!! 😀
The special thing about it is that, this tupperware is a microwaveable container. Cold lunchbox that spoils your appetite?
#11
(Ok let’s focus on the button and ignore my nails, k?)
There’s a removable silicon button. Just push it down for vents to open, for steam to escape while microwaving. So you don’t need to leave the whole lid open, or eat soggy mushy food.
#12
Heat it up!
#13
Tupperware also has an Eco bottle, that is made with non-toxic food grade material so you can have the peace of mind that your drinking water is always safe!
#14
This is the other tupperware i have in my house.
I have already assigned a specific task for each of them! Hehe.
Last but not least, do you know that all Tupperware containers come with a lifetime warranty? They are so durable and strong that if there’s wear and tear, you can return them!
You just need one each of them and you can reuse them forever. Think of how many PET bottles and styrofoam boxes you have saved just by having one set of Tupperware?
I know now you are thinking that, “man, but now i need to wash the tupperware for my next tapao and i don’t even get a discount for not wanting the styrofoam box!”
Ok, honestly, if a super lazy person like me and do it, i dunno why you cannot. And FYI, i’m the laziest person i have ever seen. But from today every time i go downstairs to tapao my zhap fan, the tupperware would be with me. That’s my pledge.
If you would really do it, let’s say i give my rare admiration to you now. 🙂
And thanks for reading till this line.
And now, if you pledge to reduce your carbon footprint, you also stand a chance to win some Tupperware goodies. Join me in the pledge HERE!!!

haha thank you!
Erm…didn’t that stall owner give you a weird look when you brought that tupperware? 😛
Actually another good thing about using tupperware is this: You have one less styrofoam box to throw into the garbage, so it becomes full less quickly (and it’s less smelly too, ‘cos you don’t throw food in it), and so you don’t have to take out the garbage so often! (lazy people’s way lol)

My mom doesn’t cook, so my dad tapaos lunch for me everyday and he always uses a tupperware. 😀 Because he hates styrofoam containers. Is that how you spell styrofoam?

Wow…this post makes me miss Malaysian food. Sob!
I have tried so many times to try to pack lunch to work using a container like that but have always failed miserably.
There are not many takeaway hawker places in Australia as there is in Malaysia or Singapore. I really really miss the cheap no-fuss takeaway hawker centres back home!
cool tupperware~ save the environment, save the world.
so how is Japan?
Nifty for tapau-ing stuff that’s for sure! The only cons (for me) is having to wash up. T_T
The tupperware with compartments is so cool! And the soup bowl comes so handy.. I cant never eat rice without soup… So that’s a good idea. How can I find out how much a set cost?
the guy got give extra chicken or not Haha…Leng lui buy Chicken rice and shoot him wo
Your review is better than KY. Bravo!
Way to go!
That’s why I love big bags too! Just tell the person “dont need plastic bag”!
Made my pledge! 😛
How much is the Eco bottle by the way?
Eh wtf where is my comment saying omg I feel like doing this too!
Yah using mineral bottle (PET) for everyday use is unhealthy, some link it to cancer causing. That’s why I always bring my Tupperware tumbler with me, plus Tupperware has lifetime guarantee. I bring it to my office so don’t have to use the paper cup or wash the mug, too much detergent is bad for the earth too. That’s why I only wash my Tupperware once a month :p Rosak? Just go to any stockist and they are happy to give you a brand new parts for free. But not for the cloth holder for the tumbler though.
aiya.. i baru wanted to post something to promote tupperware too but u did it 100x better than me now i no need to post liao i just ask my readers / frens to read urs… LOL!!
btw, i’ve pledge to refuse plastic bag during shopping few years ago 🙂 bringing tupperware for tapao and bringing ur own shopping bag for shopping is the ‘in’ thing now we should not be left out!!
it’s the least we can help to save the environment 🙂
Hey Cheesie,
Wow…I never thought I would see an entry like this from you. I’m a strong believer in bringing my own tupperware for take-out meals ever since I was trained in WWF so its great seeing you doing the same knowing that this post will create more awareness to your readers. Good job cheesie. As a reader, I am proud of you.
omg that chicken rice is from ss2 sunhinloong. lol.
