254 Uses for Vinegar

And they’re still adding to the list!

254 Uses for Vinegar

I don’t know if I ever wanted to know so many uses for one product, but it appears there is one thing your pantry should be stocked with. It’s vinegar and it’s a growing discussion at Frugal Living, over at About.com, which might go on forever.

  • A quarter cup in a quart of water makes a good window cleaner. A reader adds: When you use vinegar in your water to wash windows, dry with newspapers. Your windows will sparkle!
  • This was given to me by a chiropractor who checked my urine and told me it was “gunky.” Drink 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in 4 ounces of water once a day for 5 days. It works.
  • For a cough that will not stop, make a remedy my brother and I always called Witches Brew. This was from my Great Grandmother.
    * Mix 1 Tbs Butter
    * 1 Tbs Sugar
    * 1 Tbs Vinegar
    Melt it all together, and take while still warm

If you get through all of those and still have a few to add, submit them over there or let us know over here.

    Another version of Witches Brew, for a really sore throat and lots of chest congestion:

    Equal parts apple cider vinegar, honey and lemon juice - add hot water to taste.

    Have one of those and you’ll be back in action in no time.

    Being mildly to moderately afraid of chemicals like bleach, I have long kept 1/2 water and half white vinegar in a spray bottle for cleaning surfaces like counters, etc. It works as a disinfectant.

    Also, I use it when I mop the floor. It does make the house smell like a french fry until it dries, but it goes away.

    How phallic!

    Dude, what is your chiropractor doing looking at urine? “Gunky urine” sounds like a very suspicious diagnosis to me.

    Chiropractor looking at urine. I laughed so hard I cried. My dentist checks me for hernias.
