This whole thing about not pouring cooking oil down the drain is a psyop. Literally never had issues due to it. What else are even supposed to do?

@dushman we actually have had a "fatberg" clogging which required a plumber because a small cleaning spiral didn't work. guess it was the buildup of decades.

the problem is that those things can collapse, one day everything works fine, next you have an ultra-clogged pipe somewhere deep in the guts.

@bonifartius
I clean my drains with sodium hydroxide, works well.
@dushman @bonifartius Pretty sure the one used at my home is also NaOH based and it does work well. I have never heard about not draining oils into kitchen sink and stuff. Everyone does that.

I have to do this in my dorm too as the cook puts food into oil not oil into food, so I carefully remove the excess oil.
@bonifartius @dushman I will just assume that our drains are better and build for this abuse. Or they might just be magical :2bThink:
