    Wow they are used for a lot of things!

    V - vinegar - all sorts of flavors. They are you expensive here. My friend paid $40 for a small container of orange honey flavored vinegar. Of course she does not use much. She uses it in her coffee as a sweetener. She says it is not noticeable as vinegar in there.
