For a natural source, we use Fermentation using Acetobacter bacteria on feedstocks of sugars and alcohols.

If you are looking for something to consume with acetic acid in, just use some vinegar or anything that contains additive E260.

What is the source of acetic acid?

It depends on what you want it for. Acetic acid can be used in foods (in which case it's called vinegar), and to get food grade vinegar they put some sort of alcoholic beverage--wine, rice wine, hard cider, potato mash, whatever--in a tank, add acetobacter bacteria and stir continuously while bubbling air through the mix. You get 15 percent acetic acid vinegar, which is reduced to 5 percent with water, in 24 hours.
