Guest guest Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 Question - Does Red Wine Vinegar contain alcohol after it is donetransforming, and also if it is able to intoxicate a person.Vinegars do still contain some level of alcohol. The "vinegar" taste isactually due to acetic acid, but the chemical transformation is never fullycomplete just sitting around a kitchen. Vinegar would be much too gross todrink in the quantity it would take to intoxicate anyone. If you're tryingto eliminate the alcohol content in your food, cook it (this is true forwine too). Alcohol is very volatile -- that is, it boils off at pretty lowtemperatures. Just remember that alcohol also has a very low flash point-- the temperature at which it can be set on fire. So be careful if you'reusing a lot!pennsyamy <pennsyamy@...> wrote: found this website when I was trying to check on red wine vinegar (which doesn't contain alcohol) thought it might be useful info....http://health.coloradosprings.com/fullStory.jsp?id=2936 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
