They will be in competition with some of the street food cooks who buy up old oil to continue using the muck. St food is cheap for a reason!

Bangchak Corporation will be delighted that you confirmed it for them.

I'm quite sure that they have no need of any confirmation from me. ????

I don't want to believe this.   They do use cheap unhealthy palm oil.

I used to know a bloke who had a restaurant and they bought almost black old palm oil off him to use, horrible.

That is also another reason I never eat Thai street foods except steamed lemon fish. I don't like most Thai foods except Tom Yum Kung and steamed lemon fish.

Yep, I can see locals driving  around trying to find one of these stations to sell their cooking oil.

Or just tip it down the nearest drain like normal.

Fancy riding in a plane that smells of old chips.

Just keep the windows closed pal!

I had a friend who used this stuff in his old van and yes, it smelled like a mobile chip-shop!
