Get a bicycle. No other transport technology will take you 20 miles on the energy in a bowl of porridge and a handfull of nuts. Of course, if the fat comes from eating meat then the equivilent mpg drops from 300 to around 30. It takes 0.4 gallons of oil to produce a pound of beef and 0.03 gallons to produce a pound of potatoes. Article at :- http://bicycleuniverse.info/cars/beef.html

     Pretty much the same idea Jonathan Swift had way back in 1729:
