There was a couple of different brands of malt vinegar on the shelves. I'm not sure how it's used on this rock. One of the bottles had the Union Jack on the label and says it's traditional British flavor. It's fairly cheap so I'm guessing that it's diluted and flavored industrial acetic acid. My guess is that the closest this stuff has been to the UK is New Jersey.

My apologies to your country for our blatant appropriation of your good name and culture to sell an inferior product. Looks like I'm gonna have to buy a bottle now...
