I guess we can't expect to much from a store where everything is only a dollar but I don't expect to be lied too about the products. I'd rather know exactly what I'm buying...

That's really important to know. If someone used that vinegar for home canning then they might end up with unsafe preserved food.

What does then meen, it meens that the vinegar is watered down. IF they do it to the vinegar what else might they be doing it to? Just something to think about when you think you are getting a good deal.
Did he test regular store vinegar also or just the dollar tree?

I agree. To me that comes across as false advertisement.

Bumping this up. Wondering if he just did the dollar store brand or also from a regular store because that would be the true test.
