You get about 60 loaves of bread from a bushel of wheat. If bread went up by 80 cents wheat would be like $48/bu. Might be some other factor other than the price of wheat.

Good to see there are other thinking people on these "they're burning our food!" alarmist threads.

Amazing how so many people believe what the very same people who cry "global warming" are now saying about bio fuels, as they silently put "carbon taxes" and make them pay for carbon credits on industries exhaust stacks.
Na, that has nothing to do with food prices going up...
