	Rummaging in the pantry today, I found a bottle of white vinegar - OH denies all knowledge of it, though she must have bought it, I didn't. What is it used for,as against ordinary vinegar? Does anyone know? Tec

	Tec it is also useful in salad dressings And very nice on chips I have learnt a fantastic lesson on how to fool the sisterhood now that my identity has been restored! Allan (once more)

	Thanks CC that's interesting - we don't have limescale here though, because our water comes from the reservoir up on the mountain, so is very soft water - I do use ordinery vinegar to clean the windows, chandeliers, and cut glass though. Tec

	or you can just use it as vinegar in recipes where you don't want the brown colour

	Tec I prefer to cut glass with a glass-cutter.....much, much quicker! Allan

	CC that's secret men's business! Allan

	Thanks Linda, I wonder why OH bought it? even if she says she didn't, more than my life's worth to argue with the sisterhood. Tec

Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 8 793 Send Message	With all these wonderful things that vinegar can do to get scum, etc. off things - makes you wonder what it does to our insides?
Member Since: August 2006 Posts: 22 648 Send Message	Tecwyn	Report	7 Mar 2010 23:11
	Do they have secret men in Yorkshire Linda? or just puddings? Tec

Member Since: May 2004 Posts: 8 793 Send Message	Linda - it's not business concerning secret men - it's secret business concerning men!
Member Since: March 2007 Posts: 101 826 Send Message	Allan	Report	7 Mar 2010 23:13
	Secret men means just that! They are SECRET! They are shy but sociable creatures, outnumbered by the female of the species, and living in constant fear of 'the look' Or so rumour has it :0)) Allan

	Gets limescale off your pipes Berona - keeps you fit. Tec
Member Since: February 2004 Posts: 25 345 Send Message	LindainHerriotCountry	Report	7 Mar 2010 23:16
	Most of the men in Yorkshire are indeed puddings Tec I think a good descale inside probably does us good from time to time Berona. Anyway the gastric acid in the stomach is about pH 2, so is much the same as the white vinegar

	Tec I find some of the comments from ladies on this thread very acidic! Allan
Member Since: August 2006 Posts: 22 648 Send Message	Tecwyn	Report	7 Mar 2010 23:20
	I know Allan, but our alkaline personalities tend to neutralise their acidity I find, Tec
Member Since: February 2004 Posts: 25 345 Send Message	LindainHerriotCountry	Report	7 Mar 2010 23:27
	We ladies are not acidic, it is a well known fact that we are sugar and spice and all things nice
