Uhhh...

Soybeans are definitely food.

Vegetable oil is made from food.

Any time you displace one crop with another, you decrease the quantity of the displaced crop and increase it's price.

It is a really, really, really bad, arrogant and contemptuous thing for a society to burn food when there are parts of the world where people are starving.
