Comment on Breaking the generational barriers
uid0gid0@lemmy.world 1 day agoI briefly worked for a plumber during my college days to make money. He said the people who kept him in business were people who poured grease down the drain and also people who flushed tampons.

People who pour grease down the drain have definitely never unclogged a drain before.
Usually something like half fibers (hair, tampons, “flushable” wipes, etc), half grease and fats.
If it’s a solid at room temp, it probably shouldn’t go down the drain.

Yes, Popeye will eat his spinach and rescue her.

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?
