Usually it isn't good because they often add some kind of vermifuge to 
kill such critters. Try it and see, but don't dedicate your whole 
starter to it.

Cider vinegar has been traditional, but usually is really expensive.

The best is reputed to be malt vinegar, which I found was really cheap 
at the local semi-wholesale warehouse grocer, Smart And Final. Now all I 
need is for someone to mail me a damp blotter, infected with their 
vinegar eels. :-)
