I’ve been taking this as 1/4 teaspoon baking soda and enough vinegar to react out all of that baking soda. That produces sodium acetate and water and some CO2 that bubbles out, as I understand it. I haven’t noticed an issue, but came across this information that shows that with added heat (unknown how much), the sodium acetate and included water breaks back into acetate plus a small amount of NaOH. NaOH is lye.

I know vinegar and baking soda is a good substitute for baking powder in recipes and sodium acetate is sometimes added to potato chips for flavor, but I think I’ll wait until I can find out something more to restart my sodium acetate use.

I just wanted to give each of you a brief note on it.

I had saved your earlier post on that but had done nothing.
Thanks for the update
