Heinz White Vinegar: Heinz's distilled white vinegar at 5% acidity, made from grain and water, in a 32 fl oz bottle.
This is Heinz distilled white vinegar, labelled here as the US product. On Heinz's US pages, the vinegar is made from a mixture of fermented sun-ripened corn and fresh water, ultra-filtered for sparkling clarity, and diluted with water to 5% (50 grains) acidity, which Heinz calls the perfect acidity for canning and pickling. Heinz recommends it as a marinade, a base for dips or salad dressings, and to stop cut fruit and vegetables from darkening, and also as a natural cleanser for tabletops and coffee makers. The bottle in hand is the reference for this barcode. In general, distilled white vinegar is the most neutral vinegar, so it is chosen where you want sharpness without fruit or malt flavour: pickled vegetables, hot sauces, ketchup-style sauces and brines. It is also used to poach eggs. Store closed at room temperature; vinegar keeps for a long time.
