Videos: truck that runs on chocolate, car made from potatoes
The video above from Sky News is of a truck that runs on chocolate and is going around the world. The truck actually runs on biodiesel made from chocolate and they are going to Timbuktu to promote biodiesel. Below the fold is a video of a race car made from potatoes called Eco One. Eco One is made by students at Warwick University and can go up to 160 MPH. Along with potatoes, Eco One is also made from hemp and the students hope to encourage racing to go green. I can't wait for the day when I can eat my car or the gas that fuels it.

Argh,
I hate it when ABG does this gimmicky bullshit.
There's more benefit in inflating our tires than running our cars on waste liquids.

Okay, so a car that you can eat that runs on fuel that you can also eat. Have you considered a horse?
