Invention
In early history, natural means were used to store food- gourds, shells, leaves, hollowed logs, women grasses, animal organs, etc. The first plastic food containers as we know them today were introduced on a commercial scale in 1946 with the invention of Tupperware by Earl Silas Tupper in the USA.
