my understanding is that since animal feed is less regulated 90ish percent of corn goes to feed livestock. since they do not digest carbs well. they grow faster and healthier on distillers waste, than they would on raw grain. because it is cooked, and the carbs are removed, and the protein and fiber are concentrated. the same acre of corn will give you more milk/beef but also the booze to bring it to market
