If you want to get the vinigar smell out try acid (can get it at Rona)

What kind of acid?
Vinegar is an acid.

Big Blue Barrels

This is the guy I get barrels from. Having a removable lid is very handy. The residual food additive syrup is easily removed with hot water.

Awesome thanks!! I will give him a call tomorrow and pick up a couple.

No go on the bleach. I thought that would get rid of it too but nothing.....
