It can be excreted at the site of absorption, i.e., the intestines. The article I read referred to acetic acids ability to disturb sugar/starch digestion.
There is no mechanism in the body for the excretion of fat. I say this as someone with a Ph.D. in human nutrition/nutritional biology.

I mean, if someone tested human stool for the presence of fats, would the tests prove negative? That is, does the body completely absorb all fats that the digestive system encounters? I can see this feature would have proven itself useful during times of starvation.
