As a child growing up in the rural south, this was a staple in nearly every household. I remember walking to the local mom and pop grocery with my mother and asking to purchase a gallon pickled bologna jar. Mom kept that old jar for years, replacing the lid occasionally because the old one had gotten too rusty during the colder months. This is a tradition I have faithfully kept up over the years, I suppose out of nostalgia, but also because sun tea is just hard to beat!
