Let's forget about the fact that it takes fuel to plant, fertilize and harvest. 

Let's for get about the fact that my car takes a 15% hit in gas millage.

Key paragraph...
"Right or wrong, that was when blame firmly settled on biofuels for the
surge in food prices. The diversion of American corn from flour to fuel
put the flat corn bread out of reach for Mexico's poorest."

Thank you Governor Kulongoski ((D) - Oregon), for making non-ethanol gas illegal in the state of Oregon.   I am sure it was a valiant attempt at reducing illegal immigration from the source.
