When I am preparing fresh collard greens to be cooked, I put them in a sink filled with salt water. I swish them about, then let them soak in the salty water for 15 to 30 minutes. Greens that are very dirty and gritty get the longer time. After the soak, I swish them about again, testing for grittiness and dirt. If they seem clean, I drain the salt water, then rinse them in plain tap water to remove any residual dirt and the saltiness. After the salt water rinse and plain water rinse, I finish preparing the collards for cooking, then get on with the cooking. To answer your question about rinsing collard greens in vinegar, no, I do not do that. I rinse mine in cold, salty water.
