People still don’t understand the difference in BTU value between a barrel of crude, or gasoline for that matter, and a barrel of ethanol. They also do not understand how many BTUs it takes to make a barrel of ethanol from sugar cane vs. a barrle of gasoline from crude oil.

Always remember: sugar is made for sweetening and ethanol (with a few additive) is made for drinking.
