So here is my latest fill-flash attempt. I don't usually use flash outdoors, but on this bright sunny day I attempted it. I tried to stay in open shade and used flash to warm things up. I didn't attempt any open sun with the fill, as I haven't figured it out yet. Any cc - I'd appreciate it!

I say it looks good also. How did you use the flash? I am wondering because I see no catchlights. Couls just be the size of the pic though.

I used a lightsphere, pointing either straight up or at an angle forward to soften it.

Are you shooting RAW? Doesn't sound like it - you should be. I did a check on it and it's a little underexposed. Try doing an auto levels or auto color correction. It seems to be a tad bit warm. It looks dark/red to me (slightly but enough to show room for improvement)

The exposure looks fine to me, but I would suggest trying it without the Lightsphere. Fill flash outdoors takes a fair amount of power, and the tupperware wastes a lot of it.

To me, it looks like it could use a little contrast. Try tightening up the levels a little bit.
