Or, alternatively, you could eat healthy.

It's such surface level emotional thinking. Like if you just think about it for a moment - let 'em mfers burn and churn, momma needs her protein dust.

Nope. Nothing oily that doesn't rinse away completely with water. Most people forget butter and peanut butter, too.
But olive oil does rinse away pretty easily with water and washing up liquid? So does butter and bacon fat?

I started pouring mine in to an ash bucket I use for the open fire. The ash soaks it up and it all gets thrown out in to the bin
You could throw it into the fire and get some extra warmth.

I can't tell if people here are pouring their grease down the drain.
The answer is don't. "It will be fine" for the person who told you that it will be fine, but it will absolutely fail for you. You know that by now. Also that guy is lying and already had to snake his drain but won't tell you that.
Idk I've never had any issues.

That’s a dirty movie, for naughty people.

You're not just "sticking it to the man" when you do this though --- you're being a dick to your city, its residents, and employees.
That's on the private water companies and failing to invest and fix the infrastructure properly. Fuck them they are the same bastards as the landlords if not worse.

Burn the grease in woodstove or fireplace for extra heat
Do you live in like a castle or something. Who tf has those.

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.
I've done this too for some washes. The shrinkflation on those capsules is unreal too so gotta throw in a couple to make it up for that. How did it cause a problem?

I live in and visited multiple countries in Europe. You're all just as arrogant. The only exception is eastern Europe but they're just racist/homophobic
Nah eastern Europeans aren't like that at all we're all very friendly, except the poles obviously.

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.
Yes. It just rinses out normally like anything on the pan with a scrub and washing up liquid.

Yeah, please don't get your health information (aka half-truths) from social media. Start with an easily accessible source, e. g.
... and if necessary, research from there.
Y'all deserve each other. Actual lard eater and veganoid. Just use butter.

Pipes are made for liquids. Congealed fat is not a liquid. Pipes should not be made to handle things that aren't meant to go in them.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Whatever is downstream of my sink should be built to handle food waste. That must include fats. Not my fault if they half-assed it honestly. Build a better world next time.

the drain can have little a grease, as a treat
Please don't pour fat down the drain. Starving children in Africa could use that bacon grease!

clean up after the parents
Huh? I live on my own and cook for myself and have for 10 years. My parents live in a different country and I've not even seen or spoke to them in like 6 years so I don't get what you mean to imply there.
I just haven't heard of this phenomenon before. I've never had any drainage issues either. Maybe in the shower due to hair, but never in the kitchen. I've just literally never heard of this, ever, my parents definitely never did this back in my home country, nor have I ever seen anyone do this in any of the countries I've been to or the one I currently live in.
I've lived with roommates, at boarding school, and with a partner, and not once have I seen them not pour grease down the drain either, least of all in a jar.
Doing some surface level research it seems like primarily an American thing. As long as you're not pouring litres of pure grease down the drain it should be ok to just wash down what naturally comes off pans etc. as you wash them, especially mixed with washing up liquid. Maybe I'm just not very greasy idk.
What is "lucky 10g"?

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Why do you keep focusing on "water"? I don't get what you're getting at. You don't wash dishes with just water. Water is a very small and inconsequential component of the process.
You wash dishes by squeezing some dishwashing liquid on a dishwashing sponge, then pour hot water onto the dish being cleaned and leave it on as you clean, then you scrub the dish clean with the sponge while water flows over washing away what's left.
Then when there are no longer any visible stains on the dishes in question, the dishes are considered clean and you put them on a drying rack and/or pat them down with a towel to ensure dryness.
All i see going into the sink during this process is soapy water. I've no idea what is or isn't "grease" of that liquid. It's all just food waste. It disappears away into nothingness, as it should.
Why it could cause any issues all of a sudden when it never has and the only place people have ever mentioned it or claimed to do it is on the internet.
Ig it's like one of those "put an iPhone in a microwave" trolling things to get people to keep jars of dirt/trash/food waste and spread insects and/or disease?
Edit: Downvoted because you're upset at the mention of dishes?

Ah sure thanks. The "g" threw me off. Wouldn't it be "lucky 10k"? g means "grand" but that's usually only in reference to money, nah?
