I’m surprised that some downvoted your comment when bidets just make sense
it basically saves you money longterm and keeps your butt nice and clean
I didn’t downvote it but it seems out of place for an article about people dumping cooking grease down the drain.
It’s not just the grease. These stories come up every few years (the recent major fatberg in London was what pushed me to get a bidet), and they’re caused by a combination of grease, paper, and ‘flushable’ wipes.
