Story about pigtails: Back in the colonial days when there wasn't much of any meats available in Belize, the crafty Brits in England who were butchering hogs aplenty and selling all the parts except the tails to their fellow Brits, cleverly packed up the tails in wooden casks with lots of salt to preserve them, and shipped them off to the Belizeans who thought they were wonderful and a thriving market in pigtails developed. It thrives still and now since the wooden casks are no more, a plastic bucket is known as a "pigtail bucket".
