Americans Burning Corn to Cut Heating Costs

As US heating costs spiral to all-time highs, American homeowners are turning to burning corn in special stoves to reduce their energy bills. Sales of corn-burning stoves have tripled this year and distributors across the country have been sold out for weeks.

“We are actually taking deposits for products for next fall – it’s all you can do,” said Ed Hiscox, owner of furnace retailer Hiscox Sales and Service in Valparaiso, Indiana, in the middle of the US corn belt.

“We have customers from very high-end homes to people who are not really in any financial condition at all. It doesn’t seem to make a difference – everyone has problems with gas prices.”
