I am sick of corn being used as a fuel source, when it makes a crappy additive and should be used as food in the first place. It is a huge problem for me because my car and my power equipment run like crap on E10, and I can't find straight gas in Taxachusetts because it is mandated that all pump gas is to be a minimum 10 percent ethanol. Even when I go in New Hampshire, I still can't find regular gasoline. I just want a choice, or at the very least, something that doesn't make my stuff run like it's antique farm equipment.

AFAIK - the largest percentage of corn that is used to produce ethanol isn't edible to people.. so the only real "waste of food" is that edible food isn't grown on that land.
