For example, cheese is mold and mold that grows on food after it sits for a while is also mold, but that mold is disgusting whereas cheese is edible.

You can make just about anything from corn.

Food, sugar, fuel, sextoys, plastic... The list is pretty long.

    The neat part about that is it also ties fuel and food together as (partly) interchangeable items.

    During fuel shortages, ramp up corn -> fuel production. During food shortages, reduce/cease corn -> fuel production.
