Guest guest Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Thanks for the clarification. So malt is not a " thing, " it is only a process. When we talk about malt vinegar then, it's really malted [wheat/barley/whatever] vinegar, is that right? It's amazing to me that that's not made more clear. It sounds like, eventually, we could have GF malt flavoring, GF malt vinegar, etc., maybe even GF malted milk balls!!

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 <gasp> gluten free malt balls <gasp> oh my gosh, that sounds wonderful.... don't get me wrong that is something I only crave about once a year or so, but it seems that it falls under that " when you CAN'T have it.. you WANT it that much more " does this make sense?
