CSA/USA must have >some good reasons for prohibiting distilled vinegar. I certainly agree that full information should be available and then each person can make a decision based on that information. In this regard, I hope that someone from CSA/USA (or any other celiac group that prohibits grain alcohol based vinegar) will provide the basis for their prohibition. It would be helpful. If I knew what this belief was based on, perhaps I could do some checking. Don Kasarda Albany, CA
