There just arent enough cars in britain that are diesel powered to produce a
shortage of cooking oil if some of them started using cooking oil in their cars.
I get through about 1 litre of cooking oil per year. But use about
1000 litres of diesel.
Other people would have a smaller ratio, but even so I can see the
demand for cooking oil growing by easily 100 times, if everyone who
drives a diesel (40% of us) used it for fuel.
You don't think that would generate a shortage?
We already have a small percentage of boi-diesel in all our diesel in the UK (5%)

So much for the claim that that would produce a shortage of cooking oil.
This is the reason the price went up for cooking oil,supply and demand.
Have fun explaining why the world price hasnt.

They pitched the % so the price would rise & stop people from using the cooking oil.
Completely off with the ****ing fairys, as always,.
