    I suggest you try citric acid instead. It is food grade, so
    presumably as safe as vinegar, smells a good deal less (not at all,
    that is), and works fast enough that I don't notice the difference
    from traditional pickle. Not that any pickle is exactly safe for
    kids and pets, once it has been used a while...
