Since some alcohol can be made from potatoes and have calories could you still consider it a food or d?

Potatoes are food. Alcohol is a drink. They both contain hydroxly functional groups of a molecular level. Many other food-products like sugar (glucose, fructose, galactose, maltose, lactose, and sucrose), carbohydrates, amino acids, proteins, lipids, fatty acids, glycerols, and phosophlipids all contain hydroxyls, which mean they can be turned eventually into an alcohol. Things like sugar and pasta and chocolate are not alcohols or drinks, though. They contain very different molecular formulas that make them what they are, and the same goes for potatoes.
