There are many things we pour down the drain that can cause mayhem in household pipes,septic systems or municipal severs.
What do You do or dont pour down the kitchen drain? www.mashed.com/42320 I have put milk down alot... Ah man!! |
Re: Things you shouldnt pour down the drain
Mostly only liquids but off that list I do pour milk and pasta water.
I never pour any fats/oil or solid fooods. They go straight in the bin. |
Re: Things you shouldnt pour down the drain
We reuse a plastic "soup" container for fat/oils (after cooled a bit but they can take a fair bit of heat). Once it's full we put it in the bin.
Article is aimed more at US with rubbish disposal units in sinks more common. Milk, don't waste much, normally runs out before expires. Pasta water - doesn't everyone use some in the sauce? Meat trimmings - in bin unless it's more substantial, then make stock or freeze until have enough for stock/mince etc. Egg shells - bin, compost isn't good enough to break them down Coffee grounds - compost Potato peelings - compost Seeds etc - compost Bones, stickers etc - bin Veg - compost |

Re: Things you shouldnt pour down the drain
Pasta water, where do you pour it then?
Same with milk? Trouble is, when you wash after a meal, there will always be some food debris that ends up down the plughole. |

Actually I'm disappointed. I expected an article about pythons and prosthetic limbs. |
