all foods and feeds derived from corn have risen because of this ridiculous ethanol program.

Including the "panacea" mentioned serveral times above, "distillers dried grains". Currently running about $200-225/ton.

Corn is runing pretty close to the same price on a per ton basis, so there's no cost advantage to either feed.

Also either way, the feed cost is higher than it would be if the artifical demand for ethanol wasn't there.
