I visit the seaside quite often and like to have good vinegar for fish and chips. Curiously, this is one of the primary uses of vinegar that this article fails to mention.
- Ninjin, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6"29. Add vinegar to your deep fryer to eliminate a greasy taste."
Um, it's generally not considered a good idea to add water-based liquids to hot oil. Just a heads up, 'cause house fires aren't fun. - CornStarch, on 10/11/2007, -2/+7Could have done without the yeast infection pick lol, but other than that bookmarked.

- raskali, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5I feel like I was brainwashed by those companies that make all the toxic chemical cleaners. I switched over to cleaning my place with vinegar and baking soda (got rid of all those other cleaners) and I haven't noticed a bit of difference, aside from no toxic smell, and no worry about it splashing in my eyes or on my skin. But I really like the feeling I'm not harming the environment as much anymore. Rock on vinegar!

- Mortiferous, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4My dad's a carpenter, and he taught me to wash my hands with vinegar after working with cement. It rinses away the lime and gets rid of that dry cracky feeling your hands get.

- Tsyndr, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Probably one of the greatest uses of vinegar is to stain the cervix to screen for cervical dysplasia (pre-cancerous lesions) so you can biopsy it during a colposcopy and grade the level of dysplasia. That, with the pap smear has probably saved millions of lives from cervical cancer and billions in healthcare dollars. That should be on the list at least.
- rjam710, on 10/11/2007, -0/+255. Deodorize a room filled with cigarette smoke or paint fumes. Place a small bowl of white vinegar in the room.
Sure, it doesn't smell like smoke anymore, but now it smells like someone threw up. - bilangew, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Another one to add to the stack: http://www.vinegartips.com/
