So tell me, what do you do to "season" a cooler?
To the best of my knowledge, plastic does not season.

Kind of curious myself. I have four of them, all I've ever done was wash them out, and sometimes leave them out in the sun for a day with the lid open to allow the plastic smell to dissipate. Mebbie I'ma missin' somthang...

Oh yeah guys... I season my coolers for days. I like to coat the bottom in red gatoraid and brick dust to simulate Spanish cedar. Really makes your stick taste good... :-)

Seasoning it by washing it out with baking soda and leaving it in the sun for a few days right?? That's what I thought? Am I missing something? :-)

That's call "washing". :-)

"Seasoning" is a process that can take up to two weeks, while waiting for the "wood" in a humidor to absorb enough moisture that it will self regulate your cigars when a humidification device is added. :-)
