If all else fails you can always buy one online. Just do a Google search
for "food-grade drum" (without the quotes) and you will have enough hits to
keep you busy for a long time. You should be able to narrow the hits down
geographically pretty easily.

If you have a Tractor Supply store in your area they are worth a look too.
This would make a really great water storage tank:
