Yeah, I read about a guy that set up a Mercedes automobile equipped with a
diesel engine to run on Fryolator oil.  That's one option.

There are a number of people calling recycling and solid waste hotlines in
our community wondering what do to with the oil that is leftover from turkey
fryers.  Typically, there is between 15-30 gallons of oil per individual
that needs to be disposed of.

We have been encouraging individuals to contact restaurants who may save
their leftover oil for sale to a rendering plant, but would like to offer
another option.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
