i don't know how common it is, or what kinds of vinegar. one site from the
govt. of oregon says:

Antabuse reacts with alcohol - any alcohol! Longer consumption of antabuse
usually results in a more severe reaction. Also, the more alcohol the more
the reaction. Alcohol is a common ingredient in many products.
Read the labels on:
Deodorants
Perfumes
Aftershave or Pre-shave
Cough Medicine
Wine vinegar
You may react to the alcohol in these products, though rarely when using
the products as they are intended.
