Ethanol: Is it coming or going?

Wed, 20 Aug 2008 06:00:00 PDT

With corn being ubiquitous in processed foods (corn starch, dextrose, fructose, the list goes on) it increases costs across the board. But with the recent performance of Verasun Energy, perhaps I need to modify my view, or at least re-examine it.
