Why You Shouldn't Pour Canned Oil Down the Toilet or Sink: The Consequences Will Be Very Serious

Having eaten sardines, sprats or tuna, many people do not even think about what to do with the oil left in the can.
They simply pour the viscous liquid into the sink or toilet.
Many housewives do the same after their household members have eaten herring, shrimp or any other product that was covered in oil and sold in plastic packaging.
This is a very serious mistake. Oil should never get into the drain hole.
Consequences of a mistaken action
Oil does not dissolve in water. Moreover, after pouring it into the drain or toilet, it becomes excessively thick.
In this form, the product remains in the pipes. Or rather, on their walls. Thus, the risk of clogging becomes maximum.
What to do with oil?
The remaining oil in the cans can be used as a dressing for vegetable salad.
The dish will not only become more filling and nutritious, but will also acquire an interesting fishy flavor.
If too much oil has accumulated and it is not planned to be used for culinary purposes, the viscous liquid should be poured into an empty plastic bottle. The container should be tightly closed and thrown in the trash bin in this form.
