<< review queue entry 41298 - submitted by 'wallaby78' >> http://beat.baidu.com/?p=5790 Editor: I suspect that "gutter oil" is not really English, but rather Chinglish derived from this very term 地沟油 (地沟 gutter + 油 oil). If so, that would make "gutter oil" a poor definition of 地沟油, since we would be giving a circular definition. My suspicion is based on a Google search for "gutter oil", in which almost every link on the first three pages relates to China. Furthermore, "gutter oil" is not in Encarta, Wiktionary or Webster. http://www.foodprocessing.com.au/articles/51794-Gutter-oil-out-of-the-sewer-and-into-the-frying-pan |
