<x-charset ISO-8859-1>It is correct that a lot of the stuff they use here is animal fat or 'half liquid' vegetable oil. The half liquid, hardened, oil I use for making biodiesel. The liquid oil I use in a separate tank (with a pre-hearting system) to drive on pure oil. A tip: the Chinese restaurants in Belgium (and I think everywhere else too) always seem to use liquid oil, and even in larger quantities then in Western cooking. Sometimes you have to gain their confidence, though, before they will give it to you, but that is not too difficult.
