::Um, yeah, that's a bit of a harsh claim to make, and hopefully he has sufficient evidence to back up his assertions. Who knows? Maybe he has enough sources to create a whole "Atheism and sewage eating" article. My point here is more that I can see how Conservative is trying to vociferate ideologies but ends up attacking people too much. —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>Rev. 22:13</sup>]]''''' Wednesday, 11:03, September 20, 2023 (EDT)

:::PubMed Central journal article: "Gutter oil is a type of cooking oil recycled from the gutter, household drains and grease traps. It may also contain other wastes including reused cooking oil from restaurant fryers and kitchens, and animal fat (e.g. leftover animal parts, chicken fat, pig skins, internal organs, and expired meat, which are mainly from slaughterhouses)".[https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10117420/] "The short documentary details the illegal production and sale of so-called "gutter oil," a cooking oil made from restaurant sewer refuse and rotten animal fat that is refined and then sold, mostly to small restaurants and street food vendors." - Bloomberg News, October 29, 2013.[https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2013-10-29/this-expos-of-china-s-gutter-oil-black-market-will-churn-your-stomach] "Chinese call it "gutter oil" — a foul slop fished up from sewage drains or collected at restaurant back doors — and it's being used widely in the country's eateries." - Fox News, 2010.[https://www.foxnews.com/world/china-vows-crackdown-on-gutter-oil-_-reused-cooking-oil-thats-skimmed-from-kitchen-waste] "Recycled food oil" known in China as “gutter oil” because it is scooped up from sewage drains or collected at restaurant back doors is apparently being used widely in the country’s eateries." - Foodservice Equipment Reports, January 3, 2011.[https://www.fermag.com/articles/652-china-cracks-down-on-reused-oil/] "A new cooking-oil scandal has erupted in China, about a decade after the country's infamous crackdown on restaurants reusing gutter oil and sewage grease."- Business Insider, 2024.[https://archive.is/NnCTA#selection-1939.0-1939.154] "Gutter oil typically comes from a variety of food waste sources, including sewer drains, grease traps, discarded animal parts and restaurant oil dumps. Once extracted, the foul-smelling slop is mixed, boiled at high temperature and sold to food vendors throughout China at significantly discounted rates." - Southern Green Industries, 2022[https://www.southerngreen.com/blog/what-is-happening-with-gutter-oil-in-china-and-how-common-is-the-use-of-gutter-oil]
:::Chinese gutter oil was tainted with sewage. At the same time, I could have been more precise via a fuller explanation giving all the details and not merely used the summary explanation of "gutter oil is made from processed sewage".
:::Consuming gutter oil can have negative consequences on people's health. According to experts, gutter oil is extremely toxic and riddled with carcinogens, like aflatoxin and benzopyrene. Consuming gutter oil can also lead to diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer's and developmental problems in children.[https://www.southerngreeninc.com/blog/what-is-happening-with-gutter-oil-in-china-and-how-common-is-the-use-of-gutter-oil#:~:text=Consuming%20it%20can%20have%20negative,and%20developmental%20problems%20in%20children.]
:::In 2015, Yeh Wen-hsiang, who was the chairman of a Taiwanese company, was sentenced to 22 years imprisonment and fined the equivalent of $1.6 million for selling 243 tonnes of gutter oil. And the mainland Chinese have begun to crack down on gutter oil sales more post 2010 too. However, "Food safety articles funded by PRC provincial science grants attribute continued difficulties in regulatory enforcement to the decentralized nature of the logistics chain, inadequate national infrastructure for disposal/recycling, and frequent innovations in visually and chemically disguising gutter oil."[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gutter_oil]
