How can I get orange stains out my tubs?

[Sayithowiseeit]

I've used my tubs to heat up tomato soup/spaghetti hoops in the microwave but now my tubs are stained orange.

Any good tips on how to get them out? I've tried washing up liquid, vinegar and bicarb, and bleach but it's not budging.

They're just cheap ones but I don't want to throw them out.

Thank you!

Just keep those tubs to use for orange things. You don't need to throw them out.

Put a piece of kitchen roll in with some soapy water and shake vigorously. Or leave to soak in Milton.

Put them on a sunny window sill, UV light will bleach them. Same as it will curry and turmeric stains, no need for harsh chemicals.

I've found wiping it out with some vegetable oil on a paper towel reduces the staining massively.

Also when cleaning tubs I always clean out and rinse with cold water first, this helps reduce staining

A soak with a milton (or any other sterilisation tablet) sorts it out

Stop caring that they're a bit orange? I don't know, that's what I do, but I don't have very high standards. I don't think it affects the taste of other food stored in the box.

Thank you all! I'll try the Milton as I haven't tried that yet
