Seal Set

My husband and I love road trips, short or long term. We like to discover off the beaten track: gravel roads, dirt roads all roads  that does not suddenly creep toward extinction above the tree line, they threaten to push us over a cliff unthinkable, let us plunge thousands of feet into the abyss. Yes, we crossed one of those in Montana, but thats another story.

Road Trips call for preparation, so that our trunk still holds an emergency kit containing extra clothes, space blankets, snacks and foods. The cupholders below the scoreboard still hold water, even at the half-hour travel and thats where this story begins.

Cups Road Trips

We used to carry water bottle in the car, filling bottles at home. Then we learned too: the rapid growth of bacteria in the bottles; About leaching plastics in water, etc. We decided to replace bottles with drinking cups.

The options are not good, however. Some cups didnÂ't cupholders fit. Other Cups didnÂ't hold much water. Some didnÂ't allow quick sips. Other didnÂ't seal. Some were too heavy!

We needed cups, light drink with plastic straws.

The discovery

Thats when we found Tupperware cups. Specifically, we found plastic Tupperware cups with straws! The company manufactures a range of drinking glasses that work for car journeys. Each course has a quasi – liquid-tight seal on top and everyone is dishwasher safe, so no bacteria!

Some of their cups are for picnics or hiking, with seals (lids) have no opening. Those are great in backpacks, even if they fall over. Other Tupperware tumblers make arrangements for drinking without removing the lid, and were just what we needed for road trips.

1. The  "Insulated Tumbler with Drip-Less Straw Seal" has been our choice. This 24-oz cup of drink is the construction Double walled to keep drinks hot or cold for hours. It fits in the console cup holder and one end does more. One great "Drip-Less" lid straw minimizes leakage, even on a tight curve. We liked the fact that you use disposable straws in it, so no worry about the hygiene there! You donÂ't have to hand wash a straw, or risk putting in the dishwasher. Any part Straw standard, so you can always stop in a shop for convenience. Of course, the cup itself is dishwasher safe.

2. Is the "On-The-Go Tumbler "would be great for kids on long car trips. It even larger, 32-oz drinking cup has a tapered base that fits to most holders of the Cup car, and the seal to eliminate spillage. Is the "On-the-Go Tumbler" has two models, each with a different image on the side. One design offers a pop-top drinking hinged open. Children donÂ't have to remove the lid to drink. They simply flip the roof open or closed. The other design features a seal of a "drip-opening" lessa straw like insulation cups with straws that we chose. The liquid-tight lid has a hole for a disposable straw. It would be helpful to them in a fast-food, and paying the children's drinks in them.

3. If you take babies or young children of your road trip (these days are left for us), Tupperware's a "Sipper Seal Seta" would be a good choice. Moreover, these cups would be great at home, too. During a trip, you can put all four filled and sealed in a cooler. When your baby (over 6 months) or toddler wants a drink, you simply change the cover for storage sipper seal which enables children to drink without spills.

Warranty

Although I can not guarantee that you'll like plastic cups Tupperware with straws as we do, I can assure you that Tupperware product warranties. If you get one of their cups and it is damaged in use normal, they promise to replace it for free for the lifetime of the product. IÂ'm not sure if the use of CUPA life will be as long as yours, but guarantee Sounds good to me.

If you love the trips we, or if you just want to be on-the-go around town, you may want to consider Cups Tupperware with plastic straws. If I werenÂ't so busy, I might consider becoming a consultant for Tupperware that I can sell.
