No, not really. But more clarity would help

am I going to have to pay taxes on alcohol and foods from France every time I cross the border?

Don't understand why you want to do that ? Enjoy the wine and foods in France, and then move on !!! YOu backpacking ? Why carry more baggage than is necessary. Eat fresh where ever you are.
By taxes you mean what ? Customs ? hell no ! Duty Free shopping in airports within EU ? No such thing

There are two rates EU and travelling outside EU.
When are you going ? It would be nice of you bought "Let's go Europe" - written primarily by students for students.
many students take the Eurorail pass as a way of seeing EU.
