Honestly very confused by how it can be a mainstream condiment/dressing. For me it’s just acidic. Doesn’t really taste of much but sorta tingles on my tongue/throat. Sorta like when you burp up a little stomach acid or a milder version of when you throw up stomach acid. Very confused about salt and vinegar chips and any sort of vinegar based salad dressing.
Something not a lot of people are talking about is why the different vinegars are so different.
Vinegar has similar properties to alcohol. My understanding is that they’re made similarly. For example, white vinegar is basically like grain alcohol. It’s… Unpleasant.
Balsamic though? Similar to wine. Pretty great, and so many variations
Malt vinegar? Beer. Pretty tasty.
Same deal with apple cider and rice vinegars
But yeah, plain white vinegar is not great
