They say most corn is now used for ethanol fuel, not for food.....so anything using corn as an ingred will go way up in price.
It's not just beef.Seafood,produce,non edibles like paper towels etc....Have you noticed the price of all groceries lately? The store mngr where I deal says it will go much higher before it levels off.
