  i heard it is boiled before aged…i guess i’ll just call the brand that i use and ask. thanks!

  There is no substitution for really good balsamic. I just use it anyway cause it doesn’t cause me adverse reactions. I have also used dried figs, soaked and blended with apple cider vinegar. That gives a sweet rich quality, but it is definitly not balsamic.

  I was just thinking… isn’t everything that is bottled or canned heat treated?

  I order olives from goldminenaturalfoods.com that are in a jar and raw. I e-mailed the manufacturer and they said that no heat was used in the canning process so I assume it was vacuum packed.

  Thank you deborahann~ I’ve been to the Goldmine storefront in San Diego. I should have known. :) BTW, do you like Goldmine’s Raw Olives? Which do you get if there are different ones?

  Thank you RawJim. It is probably the container that is always heat treated for sanitation.

  BTW, your kitty pirate pic cracks me up every time I see it. Thank you for that lightness. :)

  Is raw organic apple cider vinegar a good substitute for balsalmic vinegar? They’re both vinegars. I buy the Paul Bragg one, it’s usually available in most health food stores.
