Kava in tupperware?

[simonsezso37]

Hey, so all the large bowls I use to make kava in are somehow all in the dishwasher (thanks to my family's eating habits). So I was wondering if it is acceptable to use a rubbermaid holding container to use in replacement? Is it safe using the plastic and whatnot

I don't see why not, i mean other than it might be uncomfortable kneading in there or likely to spill. but nothing dangerous.

That should be fine - I often use plastic bowls for prep when the Mrs is using all the glass ones for food. Most nakamals in Vila use empty 20 litre plastic paint containers.

I didn't even realize tupperware included bowls. Somehow in my mind it's those rectangular containers with lids. But yeah, that should be totally fine.

ive stained some tupperware yellow from repeated use, so the biggest risk is a scolding from your wife.
i personally stopped using tupperware cuz it often has a small, hard to clean curved rim around the top
and i got neurotic about bacteria thriving in there. now i only use simple easy to clean designs.

Woohoo! It was much easier to knead with smaller amounts of water as compared to a larger bowl. The only problem I can see happening is my tupperware turning yellow. Not all that big of a deal though, I can live through it.
