Corn makes a great ingredient in cattle feed; distillers spent grains make an even better ingredient.

Distillation removes only the starch from corn, but none of the other nutrients. While folks require starch for their bodies to produce sugar, cattle stomachs will synthesize glucose from cellulose.

Thanks, I didn’t think there was any available near us, the closest is just over 20 miles.

You’re welcome. Don’t have detailed stats, but I consistently get better mileage in my truck with non-ethanol gas. Duh?
