Randy in Maine wrote to mention that his local Home Depot [4] store is now selling Gamma Seal bucket lids (in black only) for $6.47 each. Please note that all Gamma Seal lids [5] are certified food grade, but that many of the orange HDPE [6] plastic five gallon buckets that are sold at Home Depot stores are not. Check the markings on buckets [7] before you buy. And for any buckets or lids that you own that are not food grade or for any that you are uncertain, relegate them to storing only non-food items.
