When vinegar is high in acid does this mean it is bad or good?

Vinegar is supposed to be high in acid, since acid is what vinegar is. If the pH is below 2.4, some of the water that dilutes it evaporated. You can put a little water in it to bring the pH back to where it's supposed to be, if you want, or just use a little less vinegar when you put it on or in your food.
