>It's not toxic per se, but you can't just dump it down the drain. That's what the gutter is for: ▶ this video
This video is funded by he American government so I'm not sure how biased it is, but it shows a cost cutting measure (gutter oil): ▶ this video
Such as using Gutter Oil (not limited to delivery), a practice where cooking oil is retrieved/derived from random unsafe sources such as sewers, a practice thought to be common in parts of China: link ▶ this video
