    TIL. Thanks! Knew about wet wipes obviously. But first time I heard of this grease thing.

    Apparently it’s mostly an issue in the US due to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grease_trap so might be more common knowledge there. Apparently here as long as you’re not pouring large amounts but just as whatever naturally occurs on pans, especially if you mix it with washing up liquid as you wash dishes, it is ok.

      Most restaurants have a grease trap, but most houses do not.

      Even what is naturally in the pan is often to much and you need to clean them with paper towel before washing. At least according to the Plummer I work with

        Yeah so I think it’s okay because without the grease trap there’s no clog. Idk about plumbing though. Ig it’s something to keep in mind for longevity if you’re lucky enough to own.
