Default going to france

Has any body traveled in france using vegetable oil

Ive read that it is ilegal in france to use vegetable oil but not in the EU

So if any body has been to france ,if they could let me know what they found when there that would be great
many thanks alan

i have been a few times running on veg,no problems,but then again most euro diesel is partly bio,maybe only 5%.
once even had an official comment while checking passports that he could smell the burger van a few hundred yards away
sometimes the customs will dip vehicles before you travel,these are uk customs on this side of the channel and at our ports,they are looking for red diesel and you shouldn't have a problem running on veg as its legal.nothing to worry about .
