WNYBuckHunter Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 It has to do with the droughts in many areas and the corn and bean crops failing this year. Theyve been saying thats what was going to happen for months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 There is a huge demand for corn to make Ethanol so they can screw up gas engines , That will rais e the cost of corn and gas . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 You would think that with all of the crop failures, etc, the smart thing to do to keep food costs to a minimum would be to cut the ethanol production, and stop adding it to the gas, at least for now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doewhacker Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Corn or corn byproducts are in many foods, it's pne reason why Americans are fat. Between oil in packaging and corn in foods, our grocery bills are are going to go up considerably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
