    I’ve got to check my storage of vinegar to make sure they are not 4% as well. About 15 months ago a local grocery was closing and had most all grocery items on clearance and both ACV and White Vinegar were marked down to $1.50 a gallon. Of course, I loaded the wagon since I use a lot of vinegar (and I do make my own but not in the quantity to use for all my canning).
    I’m not sure when this started and HOPE & PRAY it has just been recently, but I fear with everything else being reported with tainted bioengineered food, this may have also occurred without our knowledge. I would be SICK to have to throw out all of the pickles, pickle relish and other relishes I made last year with the bumper crop of cukes I had and the pear relish I made. I guess (in the back of my mind) if I don’t check them, I won’t have to go thru all the anxiety of a major ordeal of throwing away all that hard work and food with things going downhill as they are. But I will do it so no one gets sick or worse.
    Thank you for your response!
