I agree about not tagging drinks.
Still uncomfortable with "saké". All our other "é" glosses are words from languages where é is part of the orthography, and it's not part of any major Japanese ローマ字 system. I guess it's helpful to try and deflect the "saki" mispronunciation.

I don't it's necessary to have a field tag on drinks.

I don't think "Japanese rice wine" needs to be a gloss, how about this?
(We usually don't bother mentioning things like these actually are Japanese)

Should we expand [food] (which currently reads "food,cooking") to include drinks/beverages?
