should artificial vinegar be banned?

sauce? not mint sauce?? are you northern?!

i used to mix vinegar and salt together so as not to ave to put them on seperately, and to get a more even salt coating on the chips.

im sure it never worked

Mint sauce on chips? Mentalist!

 

[Callie]

Im not the mentalist! aqua is...and other people in Hull.

What flavour sauce then?

 

[FridgeMagnet]

Brown flavour

 

[Callie]

eewww

I'm really talking about the Scottish "sauce", where you get "salt n sauce", with the sauce being a particular sort of brown sauce diluted with vinegar. That way it satisfies both sauce-addition and vinegarisation purposes, without making the fried goods overly soggy.

 

[Callie]

mmmm sort of brown sauce diluted with vinegar

youre really selling it to me

 

[FridgeMagnet]

I am no sauce-merchant and have no commercial interests in the distribution of sauces or vinegars

 

[Callie]

Good job really

Salt & real malt vinegar on chips FTW. Try asking for vinegar on your chips in Germany and you'll get looked at like you've suggested an unnatural act.

 

[strung out]

just drown them in curry sauce

 

[Herbsman.]

curry sauce is THE BOMB

well actually no its curry sauce

but its dead nice

I'm not sure I've ever seen artificial vinegar. Why would somebody even bother making it?

 

[Herbsman.]

BECAUSE ITS CHEAPER THAN MALT VINEGAR FFS

I was thinking about the cost of production. I guess maybe there are some cheap byproduct chemicals of paper manufacturing or something that when thrown together taste like vinegar. I mean how expensive is it to make real vinegar?

and what is up with you and curry Herbsman? I would have thought pizza would rank higher in your opinion.

 

[Herbsman.]

no way man, i hate bread
