I hope everyone is safe, and doing well.
I was relieved when there was no trucker strike, but it did serve as a wake-up call (because a lot of our food in the provinces is trucked in from Santiago).
In the US you could buy food grade 5 gallon storage buckets, mylar liners, and oxygen absorbers off the internet, and get them shipped right to your house. I imagine one can still get the mylar liners and oxygen absorbers shipped in for not too much (once normal service is restored). But is there any source in Chile for these kinds of things?
In a pinch anything will do, but food-grade plastic storage buckets are nice, because they don't off-gas like regular 5 gallon buckets. So they don't deposit residues on your stored foods. They use them uniformly in the US for food service work, but I don't know if they have the same standards in Chile for that. Does anyone know? Or are there other resources for that kind of thing?
Again I hope everyone is safe, and doing well.
