Dude! you can't beat good malt vinegar on fries!! My wife is from Idaho, and when she came back here, the first time I took her to the Hot Dog Shop, and doused my fries in vinegar, she freaked! She never heard of it before. Turns out, Ohio seems to be one of the only few places that does that. A shame I tell ya.........

She's still looking for fry sauce, isn't she? Or is that only a Utah thing?

Malt vinegar + french fries = win.

Malt vinegar goes on chips...Chips... not French Fries.

Back to distilling for a second (I know, I'm the one that dragged the thread off topic)...

I'm sure I read somewhere online that some regions allow distilling grain (corn) alcohol for fuel purposes.  You need a permit and are supposed to put an additive in at the end to make it undrinkable.  Theoretically speaking, say your car ran better on ethanol distilled from a barley mash instead of a corn mash - and who's to say your car wouldn't prefer something aged in oak for a period of time?

I think you're less likely to get unwanted visits if you just got one of those "essence" extractors for distilling water and essential oils. Once you got your license for distilling "fuel" you can bet they're gonna keep an eye on you. And I think you probably need to own a car that runs on the stuff so there's a few more dollars he'd probably have to spend.
