Food does not turn into plaque. Plaque is massive colonies of bacteria. If you were to place a smear of plaque under a microscope, it would appear as millions of wiggling, vibrating, and swimming creatures.
Those creatures feed on simple carbohydrates (sugar). The more sugars you put in your mouth, and the longer it remains, the more the bacteria feed and multiply.
A by-product of the bacteria feeding is acid. Just like any creature, bacteria create waste products (urine, feces). That's what the acid is. The acid breaks down the enamel and eventually causes a dental cavity.

Plaque closer to the heart can cause more fatal problems than, say, plaque in the legs.
