Oh true, bacon grease does get used. Either in the same dish or you throw some toast in that pan the next day. But OP seems to be talking about a jar to throw out.

Blueberrydreamer@lemmynsfw.com 4 weeks agoHave you ever cooked bacon? That’s about the only grease I’ve known folks to save. Maybe some from ground beef if you’re cooking up a whole lot.

Yeah, most families where I live keep a grease jar. You don’t throw it out, bacon fat stays good for months, it’s like a little tub of Crisco but a thousand times better tasting.

Yes. It just rinses out normally like anything on the pan with a scrub and washing up liquid.

You need to stop doing that yesterday. That’s literally what this meme is making fun of. The issue isn’t difficulty cleaning, of course it comes off. The issue is putting huge amounts of fat in your drains or septic system that will lead to massive problems down the line.
