Is it forbidden to use vinegar to clean limescale in the toilet?

It is impermissible to use vinegar for cleaning toilets because it is a respected food, and it is forbidden to remove impurities with it. This is a form of ingratitude for Allah's blessings. Jurists have explicitly stated the prohibition of using food and drink to remove impurities because it constitutes a waste of wealth.
