[Corn has been going up as a food staple because it is being diverted into the fuel business. Write to your congressperson and ask them to stop the ethanol subsidies. We should be eating our corn, not driving it. Not to mention that it is terrible for your engine. So the price of feed corn due to ethanol plus the cost of oil is what is making food prices skyrocket. It is only going to get worse before it gets better.[/quote]

Exactly! I dont by ethanol... and I think they should reconsider alot of the farm subsidies....and before anyone says anything...we own farms.
