Sulfuric acid cucumbers

then of course theres no reason not to do so. FYI: did you know radium was once a health food? Back in the early 20th century an elixir named radiothor was promoted due to the health enhancing effects of ionizing radiation, or so the company claimed. Incredibly, the FDA actually prosecuted vendors whose radium based concoctions were not actually radioactive.......

As far as the NFPA goes, well I think this is a sort of "I read it in a book" scenario. There's no reason to believe anything you read, especially if it comes from some agency with a fancy acronym. You are far better off doing the research yourself, because those acronym people are always performing their research with their next grant in mind. If they can pick up a few extra hundred thousand dollars for another item on their list, then of course there's no reason not to do so.

When he died it was said that photographic film placed on top the casket developed itself into a sort of xray image of his skeleton.

Avoid the grave site!

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has developed a system for indicating the health, flammability, reactivity and special hazards for many common chemicals through use of the NFPA 704 Diamond. This does not assess toxicity or strength and the rating for acetic acid applies to glacial acetic acid, which is extremely concentrated. Acetic acid is classified as a weak acid, sulfuric acid is classified as a strong acid.

Sulfuric acid is certainly more dangerous than acetic acid. H2SO4 is a very strong acid, while H3CCOOH is moderate to weak; this means that acetic acid, at the same molar concentration of the compound, a solution of sulfuric acid thus contains a lot more active agent, which is a "free" proton, than an equimolar solution of acetic acid. A 5% solution of sulfuric acid would be rather corrosive, actually; nothing you'd want to get in your mouth, for certain.
I think the NFPA rating is exclusively for lab and industry purposes; concentrated acetic acid is also pretty nasty, with the added factor of acidic fumes that does not really exist with sulfuric acid.

Chemicals not specifically marked and certified as "food grade" should, under no circumstances, be consumed in any form. Also, the thing with vinegar and acetic acid is that they have a taste, so they can be used as a condiment.
