speaking from experience, acid can take a layer of your tongue away if you use enough, and im sure that vinegar has the same potential for damage to a canker sore as it does to your useful cells. the advantage is that the good cells grow back, whereas the canker sore doesnt. keep doing whatever it is you had in mind, cuz the damage i experienced wasnt painful and had no affect on my ability to taste food (the tequila i drank just an hour ago still almost made me gag).
