MrJimmyC
Well you can turn any vegetable into alcohol. If it's got sugar, you can make alcohol.
prattleassassin
tuber or not tuber, that is the question
AlphaKill
To be fair alcohol can be made out of just about any fruit or vegetable.

TravisTee34
You can make all three of those out of turnips. Granted, you may not want any of them, but still, you can make them...
Reviire
I mean, you can make fries and chips with other vegetables. Dunno about alcohol

Not a veggie. It's a starch bro.
amglasgow
You can make liquor out of anything containing sugar. Many other vegetables, like carrots, beets, etc. can be made into fries and chips.

Umm, potatoes are roots, not veggies.

You just confused the hell out of all the Brits on here...

I think corn has potato beat, as it's in everything...

Huffermingle
corn is in practically everything you eat and drink, in one form or another.

In the US. Corn syrup isn't much of a thing outside the US.

Potatoes aren't a vegetable. They are a tuber

That sounds absolutely disgusting, but I really want to see what that'd actually taste like.
MrMack303
Grassy. There's nothing in broccoli that would ferment and most of the flavor would settle out during fermentation.
DreadPierateRoberts
bound to have some sugar
qyron
Broccoli can spread smell & flavor a long way... I'd risk it would take some imagination to get some alcohol out of it.

Have you ever heard of all the fuckery the asians are doing with rice?

Mexico pretty much gave us the best thing rice could ever make: Horchata

Humans are quit creative when it comes to turning fruits and vegetables into alcohol.

Yeah bamboo and rice called, they wanna have a word with potatoes about versatility
qyron
Wheat/barley: grain alcohol, breakfast cereals, flour, beer.
Tomadzo
Not a vegetable
qyron
Roots, more precisely, but vegetables. Potatoes are tubers.
Tomadzo
You posted wheat and barley. Grains.
qyron
Carrots/turnips/beets: fermented alcohol, lots of meals.
qyron
Want more?
LearnToMakeARouxImgur
Rice and Bamboo are kinda the reigning champs of versatility tho right?

Depends on what you intend to do with them.

A VARIETY OF THINGS

Popcorn, chips, syrup, whisky. Think corn is doing alright here too.

God bless corn whiskey.

Corn is a grain, not a vegetable
Loquatsandwildhoney
Dried corn is a grain.
cvx007
Wrong. In culinary corn and even some mushrooms are considered to be vegetable. So shhh
Stockyhome
Some people think it's music too

Sweet corn is a vegetable, all others corn is a grain

I love corn, but it's very low in available niacin. So much so that hamsters living on it, sometimes eat their babies for the vitamins.

Popcorn is a grain #cornRoasted

All corn is a grain.
nerdyvet
"vegetable" is not a botanical term, it is a culinary term. The two are not directly relevant to each other.

https://www.healthline.com/health/food-nutrition/is-corn-a-vegetable#1 corn that you eat on the cob is a vegetable. #onTopic
NotTheSharpestSpoonInTheDrawer
According to Merriam-Webster, any edible part of a plant is a vegetable. So it doesn't matter if you eat it on the cob or not

Don't trust Corn. It has too many chromosomes. The original GMF!!! xD
TakamiStitches
Isn't corn as we know it originally bred from a wild grain type plant in South America?
qyron
Yes. It can be considered an engineered plant. Took thousands of generations of selective planting to achieve a truly useful plant.
sharK11
Corn is in 80% of all processed/refined foods sold in usa
CatsNotKittens
And it feeds livestock like cows and chickens. So technically it gives us burgers and nuggets, too.
TheBlueMuppet
My car is made out of corn. It was built in Freemont, Calicornia.

Imnotapotatoe
I've heard even as much as 90%... they sneak it into almost everything.
SpecialProjectY
You probably thinking of soy and cellulose.
UncleMoustache
Nope. It's corn.
SpecialProjectY
It varies between countries, but still soy is most flexibly used, it's odorless, tasteless and most resilient due to GMO.

somethingthathasntbeenused
Both corn and potatoes aren't really vegetables though. Hardly any nutrition. Just starch
gordolio
“Hardly any nutrition” does not declassify them as vegetables. They are in fact root vegetables.
gordolio
Potatoes are vegetables, I mean. Corn is a grain.
TheBlueMuppet
Nope, corn is a root vegetable now, you said it!
Ltrain5
Sweet corn is a vegetable. All other types are grains.
gordolio
Ah, interesting. Thank you.
Tyanet
I don’t think any one grain gets credit for whisky. You can use a half dozen or so different grains, and in any combination, to make whisky.
rainehdaze
And almost all proper scotch uses only malted barley (well, all single and blended malts do, and they're the most famous)
tonypotsandpans
Most famous is arguable, but the oldest versions of whisky are grain based for sure
qyron
Whisky is distilled beer, so...
neufala
Not really, there is no hops in whiskey, just barley and sometimes peat and whiskey depending on where it's from could be mostly1/2
neufala
corn(bourbon) barley(scotch) rye(rye) ect2/2
neufala
Oh and in general it is necessary for beer to have been hopped to be called beer, so no beer is made into whiskey3/3
Tyanet
Not exactly. While generally speaking, your a correct, whisky can be made from hopped washes/mashes, and beers can be made without hops...
Tyanet
...however, I believe that their point wasn't that they distill beer, but rather the process to make beer is nearly identical to the...
neufala
"beer" without hops is called malt liquor. As for whiskey, I suppose you could though I have never come across hoped whiskeys.
nanyatenyaa
Are*. There are*.
neufala
Not really, hops is kinda the only form of the word. Though I guess you never really have one hop. So maybe "are" is the right way.¯\_(ツ)_/¯
