Yes, I suppose it is better safe than sorry......I love chips with a good splash of vinegar.
In fact when I was a tinlid we used to buy vinegar from the barrel at the chip shop.......I used to take the bottle and get it filled up for something like threepence(old money)......on the way home I would drink some of the vinegar and fill the bottle at the horse trough down the back of our house.

My mother once said she wasn't going to buy vinegar from Mrs Mayor because she was watering it down to make more profit.......then she caught me with white lips and realised it was me watering it down. I got leathered for that.
