Distilled white vinegar is easy to find in the vinegar aisle at grocery stores. It's very affordable and versatile, an all-purpose ingredient that's used for both cooking and cleaning. If a white vinegar is safe for both cleaning AND cooking, it will be found in the regular vinegar section of a grocery store and should say on the label that it's suitable for consumption. For cooking, distilled white vinegar is used for an assertive but neutral vinegar flavor. For cleaning, I use distilled white vinegar in my Natural Kitchen Cleaner.
