I’m try a chive flower & cider vinegar. 
Apparently it’s fantastic on your chips and it tastes like the vinegar from your pickled onions. No harm in giving it a try.
And it looks pretty.

Is it for letting others know about yellow sticker-ed stuff? Or for recommendations for goods etc?

Or is it for flogging unwanted items?

Just asking.
