Vodka may be one of the worst things for a potato to become. Fries? Mashed with gravy? Poutine? Chips/crisps? Come on.

So many other things can become alcohol. Not sure if they're saying a boring potato can be more because potatoes are amazing. They can be chips, fries, mashed, jacket, Mr, dauphinoise/scalloped/gratin, latke, boiled! It's so versatile!

Mashed potatoes > toxic solvents imo.

Anyone with a decent memory, lots of money, and the ability to work for free for several years can become a doctor.

It's called sadomasochism and delusions, Soka.

if a potato can become vodka then I can distill my own alcohol, unless of course the government finds out
