Don't do it with your mouth full.....the other side of that coin is that farmers haven't made money in years. If you feel that food is becoming expensive, think what it will be like with only corporate farms and food from China. Energy prices are going to effect EVERYTHING and the answer is not letting the oil companies go on with unbridled greed. The spike in grain prices should not last past next summer( as farmers tend to over produce) and until we find alternative energy sources ( fertilizer and fuel) this will continue. Ethanol is not a magic bullet, just a transition. I'm not flaming your post, just opening a discussion.
