    Santa should stick to sleighs, not semi's.
    What the heck does one do with 12 tons of chicken fat?

    Eeeewww! :biggrin_2551: Yup, that is gross and I didn't know or want to think about it. I suppose it's good they aren't wasting any parts, but from now on when I see a tanker I'm gonna be wondering if it contains chicken fat, bone marrow, or animal blood.

    I run that stuff all the time. Its heated up to about 160 degrees and its light enough to almost fill the trailer so it actually rides pretty good. I get it from Foster Farms in Livingston, Ca and deliver it to Nutropet in Victorville, Ca where they use it for dry dog food.

    It gets much worse than that. They waste nothing at all. not even unborn calf carcases or eyes or brains or hair and it all goes in a tanker truck.
