Where can I buy non-brewed condiment (chip shop vinegar) in Canada?
I'm finding it impossible to buy non-brewed condiment either in my local grocery store or online (Amazon has it but do not deliver it to Canada). Does anyone know where I can buy some in Calgary (or online for delivery to Canada)?
For years I've been bringing chip-shop vinegar back with me from my trips back home but the pandemic has cut my supply line! I ran out two weeks ago and Friday night home-cooked fish and chips are just not the same! Malt vinegar just does not cut it for me, it's a completely different taste. Did you know that most chippys back home use non-brewed condiment and not actual malt vinegar?
We have a British Chippy in Calgary but it's not close to where I live, so I'll get in contact with them to ask. The British food shops in the city (and the ones I've found online) don't stock it. I'm also getting in contact with a manufacturer to see if they'll ship (they probably only sell to wholesalers).
I think I may be an addict if I'm willing to go to these lengths to buy it!

Well, that's embarrassing - I had found that product earlier and had seen a message saying that they don't deliver to Canada. I must have been on the UK site. Thank you very much for posting that!
I'd still be keen to hear if anyone knows of alternatives, $40 for a litre seems expensive. I wonder if there are any companies in Canada who make this.

When mixed with water this will produce 16 gallons of non brewed condiment

We ONLY deliver to UK addresses at the moment, but are looking to expand our deliveries in Europe soon.
