Not Food Grade
Would Not RecommendNot Food Grade. Fix your title and stop purposefully scamming people, scumbags.
NOT FOOD GRADE
Would Not RecommendI bought several of these buckets a few years ago to store rice/sugar/flour because they were advertised as food grade. Today I went to buy some more, and in the description of the product it says explicitly "Not considered food grade; product caption is incorrect".

Not white on backside

GREAT PRICE HOWEVER BE SURE BUCKETS AREN'T DAMAGED

SERIOUS FOOD STORAGE REQUIRES CLEAN AND FLAWLESS SEAL FOR THE LIDS TO SEAL PROPERLY AND LAST.

Good for storage
I really like the buckets with available lids. They are great for storing things outside. They are stackable and water tight.

Don't kick the bucket.
Would RecommendI needed food grade buckets and lids and Lowe's delivered promptly and at a good price.

Wrong buckets
Would Not RecommendI ordered plain food grade buckets. I receive buckets with a red, white and blue state of Texas on them. Why?
