RE: Food buckets - mikebratcher69 - 20 February 2012
One of the U.S. sites says Mc Donalds and such use them to get their pickles in over there. I dont know if they do here but it may well be worth asking a manager of your local Mc Donalds. They did however mention the problem of a pickel smell to the buckets, but I'm sure theres a cure for that, maybe bicarb of soda or some such thing.

We do not have a McDonalds here, which is a pity. I like pickled onions, etc. I would like to have the buckets to make pickle in them. Kenneth Eames.

I've found this site: http://www.ampulla.co.uk and the 10L buckets are around £3 with an almost £10 delivery charge. Seems a bit much? Or is this what I should expect? Where do you get yours?
Sorry if theres a post on this already, please direct me to it if there is.
That is a bit expensive:

good find, i usually get mine free from a bakery, but this is good as a back up supply.
Even cheaper (no affiliation to this seller)
