Yes, it is more expensive. That's why nobody (except celebs. I guess) buys it fresh in bottles. They work out agreements with restaurants and take the used, waste oil home and filter it and use it (hopefully only after a good kit has been installed in their vehicle which heats the oil and switches to and from standard diesel fuel so the thing can start and end on diesel).

I don't get it. Last time I checked, cooking-grade vegetable oil was substantially more expensive per gallon than diesel, and she really needs to be paying fuel tax on it on top of that. WHY would anyone do this? Just for the PC-ness of running a car on bio-fuel?
