Saw this post in a thread about brining - didn't want to hijack, so anyway - I'm looking at options for transporting a large amount of cooked beans and collard greens - would these food grade buckets (food grade 90 mil hdpe plastic) and/or liners work for that? I know they won't keep the food warm, I'm just mainly thinking about transporting food without making a big ole mess and getting it into pans, cambros, warmers, etc. on site.
So - would these liners be OK for storing/transporting hot food? The site says they will hold boiling water but I'm not sure if that statement definitively answers my question. Has anybody done this?
Thanks!

The bucket should be a "Food Safe" bucket (NSF). If it is not rated "Food Safe" you can use a "Food Safe" bucket liner.
You can also use food safe 5 gallon bucket liners. I have several food grade buckets that are sanitized, and I put the liners in them keeping them clean as I use them.
Food Safe grade buckets are available at bakeries, delis, and such... Most are more than happy to give them to you.
