This chart shows that it is almost midway between highly acidic and alkaline......
He claims you should aim for a 70/30 ratio between alkaline and acid foods....and no need to be extreme and remove all acidic foods from ones diet........

I did try to send the PDF file which I printed out at home here.......but I could not copy and paste it. It's an interesting list of foods from highly acidic to alkaline.
Apple Cider Vinegar is shown on page 4 of 7 pages......in the YELLOW COLUMN.
THE RED COLUMN IS THE HIGHLY ACIDIC, THE ORANGE COLUMN STILL ACIDIC......THEN IT GETS LESS ACIDIC AS YOU GO TOWARDS THE VARIOUS SHADES OF GREEN COLUMNS.

It's set up in an attractive format with pictures and colors but often it seems that more information is needed. I guess that's to get people interested. And if they're interested they will buy something? What are they selling?
Well, here's what I wonder. I never heard that microwaved foods are highly acidic. That's a big surprise to me. What happens if you fill up a big casserole dish with highly alkaline veggies and then microwave them? They come out highly acidic? I think I did read that cooking makes foods more acidic but they didn't say cooking in general; they said microwaving.
