I've looked and it seems to be one study saying it does not affect food prices then there is one that says it does drive up food prices. I don't have a problem with using E10 in my car but it really sucks for boats. It does three things. If its an older boat the hoses cannot handle E10 and the hoses break down causing even bigger motor problems. The other problem is that E10 holds and attracts moistuer and cause issues there. It does not store very well and seperates causing issues for people who store their boats for the winter.
