  It’s good for toilet bowl cleaner, weed killer (including poison ivy), wiping down a large cutting board (not used for meat), fruit and veg wash, descaling / removing water marks, rainbow stains or chrome / nickel residue in pans, it softens fabrics if added to laundry, is used for mayonnaise, salad dressings, sticky rice, deodorizing, and combined with baking soda has been the only thing that worked for a clogged drain. It’s also cheap in the gallon size and practically free for people on SNAP. (a lot)

    That’s a lot of good reasons for keeping a large quantity of vinegar, but I think we’re still mystified as to why you keep it in the fridge

      I don’t anymore, but… I liked it cold for some applications like canned spinach (cools that steaming pile of mushy green down). If I were to make things like mayonnaise with it, it keeps the ingredients in the safe temperature zone or gets them there faster.

        Huh, yeah that makes a ton of sense. I’m gonna have to find a recipe for spinach canned with vinegar, that sounds fire

    Oh, I use cleaner vinegar for that, it’s cheaper, but I don’t think you’re supposed to eat that. I guess just getting a jerrycan of edible vinegar makes sense.
