Certainly not enough to put in a jar. I usually give it a wipe with a single paper towel
And where do you dump the paper towel then? The idea behind a jar is that there are facility that takes that grease and (supposedly) won't dump it in a trash field, which is pretty much bad too.

What is it with Europeans shitting on Americans on the internet so much lately? If we're being honest everything that is current day American is either directly or indirectly their fault.
Its fine to remind the self centered that the world doesn't revolve around them.

Because I add the grease to my compost heap and I don't like paper towel.
My compost heap is now 80% bears. Did I do it wrong?

Our drains need to learn to evolve with our rapidly changing technology

Most likely. Were you looking to attract bears?

The problem is that you’re eating too many bears. You need more variety in your diet.
Your compost bin should be mostly green vegetables, followed by smaller amounts of fruits and grains. Keep the bears as just an occasional treat.

You mean, just f.e. that they never switched to metric system although they promised. This gotta be europes fault. Definitely. Americans are simply not responsible for their actions the last 300 yrs or so. It gotta be europeans.

Don't pour hot grease in a glass jar or it'll shatter and spill hot grease all over your counter and then when you grab a flimsy piece of plastic from the recycling and try to push it on to stop the spill and the plastic collapses and hot grease goes all over your forearm and gives you 2nd degree burns and your floor is covered in broken glass you will regret it.

Eh, a small mason jar is tough enough to handle a few tablespoons of bacon grease or whatever without shattering. But sure, if you've got a lot of grease at once, let it cool down first (or better yet, refrigerate the pot roast or whatever it is you've made, so that you can just pull the grease off the top of the pot in one hardened puck).

The idea behind a jar is that you're saving up the grease to reuse later.

Have you ever cooked bacon? That's about the only grease I've known folks to save. Maybe some from ground beef if you're cooking up a whole lot.

Like you don't even have to be a homeowner to know not to do this! I know this is shit posting, but there ain't no way you make it to reproductive age without figuring this one dumb thing out‽
This is my first time hearing of this ngl. Actually I'm not entirely sure what "grease" means, is it what is left from oil and butter after cooking meats? Meat juices? I've always poured it down the drain. Never even heard of anyone doing otherwise, least of all putting it in a jar.

Dad owned a low rent apartment house. people would put chicken bones in the drain and then call because the drain backed up. and take bulbs out of the hallway lights. He'd laugh about it then fix the stuff because he wasn't a good slum-lord. Probably never broke even

Lucky 10g reference, or you never had to clean up after the parents made food?

Are you the same people complaining about increasing food prices who are also throwing away the best part? The bacon is the byproduct. People! Save this grease and use it when another recipe calls for butter.

I once cut out a piece of pipe in some guys home, because it was all fucked. The pipe was suuuuper heavy and upon inspection it looked like someone poured concrete down there. It was very hard to clean, the guy had to hammer on it while having a pressure washer wash it out. As it turns out, his wife used multiple washing tabs in the machine to make it extra clean. She did that for over a decade.
Yeah, you can also fuck up your dishwasher pipes very quickly by using descaling meant for washing machines. Because of the salt you already add.

Definitely don't put grease or oil down the drain if it is solid at room temperature. Even oil that's liquid at room temperature is bad for sewage systems - they combine with non-biodegradable sewage waste such as wet-wipes (Don't flush wet wipes down the toilet. Put them in the trash.) and turn into rocks that narrow and block the sewage pipes. See wiki on Fatbergs https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatberg

In my house, you'll do what I do, and believe what I believe.
