No it fucks up public infrastructure and sewer mains
The public has voted for fascism and hate. Not my problem.
Less than 50% of voters voted for fascism so I’m gonna clog all the drains in my area (???)
People always say this but I don’t know what the fuck else to do with my used cooking oil. Can’t put it in the trash or it’ll melt the bag. And I’ve never lived in a place that has a proper waste oil container available.
Someone please tell me what I’m supposed to do. Just save it and bring it to an auto parts store? Is there some obvious disposal method that I’m just not aware being made aware of? What does everyone else do with it?
I use mine as a firelighter for my wood heater.
People also use it to make diesel if it’s not solidified animal fat.
Everyone says put it in a container and throw the container away, but I don’t have a bunch of empty containers around that I can just throw away. My best method is to, while the oil is still warm and liquid, use a paper towel or two to soak up all the oil. Usually it’s safe to toss this into the garbage as is, as it will cool down considerably, but if not, give it a few minutes before tossing in the garbage. I never wait for it to harden, and I’ve never melted a garbage bag before. Once there’s only a little bit of oil left on the pan, an excessive amount of dawn and a good bit of scrubbing will trap the oil and make it safe to dump down the drain. If you aren’t using that much cooking oils, you can also compost the oily paper towels, but I’d check with your local compost folks first to make sure they allow it, as too much cooking oil can ruin a compost pile.
It sounds like you’re just browning the occasional cut of meat. If that’s the case, use the fat to make a roux and thus gravy.
