gasohol
Corn-derived fuel mix
Gasohol is a fuel blend of gasoline and ethanol, typically 10% ethanol derived from corn or other crops.
The term was common in the 1970s and 1980s during early experiments with alternative fuels: The station advertised gasohol as a cleaner-burning option.
Now usually called E10 or simply ethanol-blended gasoline.
