Bragger,

You are mistaken. Do you eat pork? How about chicken? How about a greasy burger now and again? Eat eggs? Ever drink milk? Well, beef, pork, and poultry, in case you didn't know, also eat corn based products. You eat these products and so do the gazillion Chinese. You have livestock producers, food companies and ethanol giants competing for the same important ingredient.......corn. Its simple economics: increased demand increases costs. The rising demand for corn is driving grocery prices significantly higher. Experts have said that ethanol is responsible for approximately 40% of the increase in grocery prices.
