When corn is used to make ethanol, the spent grain is used as animal feed. The pub I frequent SELLS their spent grain to local farms, whether it’s malted barley or corn (they also distill alcohol). They are NOT burning food. Stop perpetuating a bald faced lie.

The real LIE is the one you're telling. When you're using land to grow a crop that's not edible to humans and used for ethanol production, you ARE in fact otherwise "burning food."

Land used to produce a crop that's not edible is a complete waste of land and ethanol takes more energy to produce than it creates. It is the most ineffective "fuel" at the pump. Anyone who understands how it's made knows that.

Spoken like a socialist.Who are you to suggest that someone’s land they own can only be used for a purpose you approve of?

Feeding animals is burning food. I get it.

When is the last time you were on a farm?

Tell me this isn’t a government project.
