I disagree, I categorise edibles thusly:
Food is alive.
Non-alive edibles are either:
Survival Rations (made out of food, can still spoil. E.g. Pasta sauce).
Drugs (made more out of chemicals or food processed to unrecognisability, tends not to spoil. E.g.: Lollies, potato chips).
I consider the last 2 to be a spectrum sliding from Survival Rations to Drugs based primarily on sugar-content.
