You might ask restaurants for emptied food containers, Mayo for instance comes in 1 gallon screw top bottles. A picture of your rig might help convince them you won't be making drugs in it.

I once bought a batch of pickle buckets on eBay for a chemical bath process.  Nobody cared... well... I had to clean the buckets several times before they quit reeking of pickles.

A local farm supply has 2000 litre plastic screw top barrels that were used to ship orange squash concentrate, they sell them for water butts. I had a look at them as a replacement for my mother's galvanised steel water butt that was beyond repair but they were too tall, taking the lid off they still smelled of orange concentrate. I used a black 1000 litre IBC container in the end. Another local guy used to sell smaller barrels for water butts that had been used to ship vinegar in.
When I needed some small containers like the OP wanted I just went down to the local shop that did a sandwich round in the local area and they were happy to give them to me as they had to pay to dispose of them. They held catering quantities of mayonnaise and other ingredients.
