We went to the Farmer's Market. Prices are always better there than what you can find at the grocery store. The amount and variety of product was overwhelming. It felt good bargaining. Kind of like the stock market. lol. The bottles on the third picture are Agrio de Naranja. For vinegar, Dominicans use the squeezed juice from the naranja agria (an orange with pocked surface) or agrio (juice from the naranja agria poured over marble-sized onions, green pepper, and garlic which sets for a week or so.) Then it is bottled and refrigerated to use as marinades or as table seasonings. Original, right?
