For the record, yeast is a fungus.

There are “morning afters” that I’d swear I was doing this internally.

They told us in JHS science class waaaay back in the 60’s yeast was a plant.
Now it’s a fungus? When did it move from the plant kingdom? Were the taxes too high?.......

sorry but I had to check it out
wiki.....
Yeasts are eukaryotic microorganisms classified in the kingdom Fungi, with 1,500 species currently described[1] (estimated to be 1% of all described fungal species).[2] Yeasts are unicellular, although some species with yeast forms may become multicellular through the formation of strings of connected budding cells known as pseudohyphae, or false hyphae, as seen in most molds.[3] Yeast size can vary greatly depending on the species, typically measuring 34 µm in diameter, although some yeasts can reach over 40 µm.[4] Most yeasts reproduce asexually by mitosis, and many do so by an asymmetric division process called budding.

Don't argue yeast with a recovering homebrewer

Sure you can make jet fuel, gasoline or other fuels from fungus, turkey guts or any other hydrocarbon, but at what cost? This is a nice experiment in a lab, but it will likely never be a replacement for petroleum. Sad to think how much taxpayers money will be wasted on this pipedream

In this instance the fungi are making the fuel all by themselves! Just gotta get a bigger tank, that’s all........................
