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.

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.
Can’t figure out the freaky chiropractor, but our family doctor agrees with a recommendation we got out of a health magazine to use the apple cider vinegar to battle gout. It’s working for my husband.
where can you purchase a book for uses of white vinegar.?
