I think your arithmetic stopped a bit early. McDonalds + Wendys + Arbys + a zillion other fast food resterants + VFW's + Schools + all the unused farm land and this is just a drop in the bucket.
If you look at the research section of the Frybrid website you'll see that Jon H. Van Gerpen Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Iowa State University, Ames, IA agrees. In some of his papers there he states the reason why he used a particular oil..."Soybean oil was chosen because, in the United States, soybean oil is the only oil that is available in sufficient quantity to supply a national market."...
By the way, If McDonalds starts selling used veg oil for the same as new, wouldn't you buy the new and not have to filter it? Of course this take us to basic economics, which probably should be understood first before making such a comment
You guys should really ask questions and think this stuff out before you just start typing "statements of fact". Talk to some people that actually do it instead of guessing.
