Tequila price hike - NOOOO
Sign of the Apocalypse:
First pizza prices go up, and now tequila is next to feel the price pressure caused by the trendy demand for ethanol vehicle fuels. A doubling of corn prices has made cultivation of the agave plant (source of Sammy Hagar's favorite drink) less profitable than corn, prompting agave farmers in Mexico to abandon their erstwhile crop and strike it rich on the yellow stuff. What's next, beer?
Wait a minute; weren’t they using the Agave to make ethanol anyway???

Beer's already been hit.
At least that's what the Germans were claiming. I think they were making it up.
But fear not. Although the current grain-to-fuel craze is stupider than neoconism, biology will eventually rescue us. If only by allowing us to continue our silly habits with lower impacts. Ethanol from cellulose is a step closer now.
