It is generally not recommended to add vinaigrette to a home composting bin.

Vinaigrette is typically made with a mixture of oil, vinegar, and other ingredients, and it may not break down easily in the compost pile.

In addition, vinaigrette can contain artificial preservatives and other chemicals that may not be safe for plants.

If you have leftover vinaigrette that you want to dispose of, it is generally better to throw it in the trash, rather than adding it to a home composting bin.
