Oh no... This, hypothetical, group of dippers comes with a sort of code (as hypothetically explained to me). Don't advertise to the masses - but always ask fellow dippers where good locations are (while dipping, of course)

Newton's comment on scalability applies here... It's not scalable, nor should it be. Lucky for us (ermm... them), not to many people are willing to eat food that came from a dumpster Waste oil is a totally different scenario - as you don't have to be queasy about it's past life as a salable product
