How many deer can you fit in a 4l (1 gal) ice-cream bucket?

Out of curiosity which gallon do they use in BC for ice cream? It looks like an imperial gallon to me :)

We typically use the imperial gallon ~4.5L in Ohio ( I usually refer to this as 5 quarts instead of using liters). But the US gallon is closer to 4L at ~3.8L. So which is it?
It's supposed to be the imperial gallon, however like everything that's downsized, it's now around 4l.
 
Our ice cream pails contain 4 quarts and one pint. I have no idea why.
 
Speaking of ice cream, wifey made molasses-ginger cookies and we crumble them on top of vanilla ice cream. Pretty good, but not as good as extra dark chocolate syrup.

That's odd I worked in the frozen foods section of a Hy-Vee for years and we always had imperial gallons (1.25 US gallons). Yes, I'm from iowa ;)

What I should have added...

Perhaps they are trying to reduce the deer population by decreasing ice cream sales :rolleyes:
 
Quarts & pints - which ones?

Canadian (Imperial): quart 40 oz, pint 20 oz.

US quart 32 oz, pint 16 oz.

This can have consequences when one does not know which is used, say in a recipe.

That's easy Ron, if it's a good ingredient such as bacon, whipping-cream, gravy or butter, you use the Canadian measurement. If it's vegetables, or something similarly yucky, us the US measurement.
