wonder what that will do to citric prices in the stores.......

Anything with sugar, starch and/or cellulose can be fermented if the
polysacharides are broken down first to simple sugars. You could
probably also burn the limonene extracted from orange peel in a diesel
but then your vehicle would really smell like a lemon

i could go for the smell..........but agree with others that they should
find something else to use instead of driving food prices up.
