Distilled Vinegar/vinegar

[jinches]

Which is safe and which is not? I'm trying to read labels and still getting confused. I called Hunts for ther barbecue sauce and they said I shouldn't use it due to it having Distilled vinegar in it. The safe food list says its ok. Is Distilled vinegar only safe if your making something from scratch? How about Hienz Ketchup and Frenches Mustard they both have distilled vinegar as well are they safe? Can someone get back to me? This is only one of many questions for me I'm still learning and making mistakes.

The vinegars you need to stay away from are malt vinegars and one out there named apple cider FLAVORED vinegar. Heinz Ketchup is safe (the Heinz Organic Ketchup is not, though). French's Mustard is safe, also. I use both of those, as well as Heinz Apple Cider Vinegar. I use Kraft BBQ Sauce. With Kraft, all you need to do is read the labels--they will clearly list any gluten ingredients.

This is a write up about vinegar being safe. Patti, as always, is correct in telling you which vinegars are safe. According to the FDA, if it says "Vinegar" then it means "apple cider vinegar" .... so, something unsafe, like malt vinegar, will be clearly labeled.
