Mexicans stage tortilla protest

tortilla.jpegTens of thousands of people have marched through Mexico City in a protest against the rising price of tortillas.

President Felipe Calderon has said the government will clamp down on hoarding and speculation to ease the problem.

But some blame the rise on demand for corn to make environmentally-friendly biofuels in the United States.
