Either you've never tasted vodka or you've never tasted anything else made from potatoes.

Best thing != best tasting thing

Either you’ve never tasted good vodka

[–] Hegar@fedia.io 1 points 23 hours ago

Good vodka is just vodka that tastes less like vodka.

Taste is just one feature, and not the most important for vodka.

[–] MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown@fedia.io 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Taste is the second most important feature of Vodka in that it is not supposed to have one. The least important feature is whether it is made from potatoes or not. You can make vodka out of practically anything.

it would not be called vodka if you make it from something else

Most vodka is grain based

Isn't rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer cheaper though?

[–] AmidFuror@fedia.io 4 points 1 day ago

Rubbing alcohol will kill you at much lower doses. Isopropanol and ethanol have very different effects on your physiology.

I don't know how safe hand sanitizer is, but the other ingredients aren't meant for human consumption.
