  Note the bottle of Fairy, the UK equivalent of Dawn. It’s not a waste disposal, it’s a fucking useless sponge holder, in my experience

    what does the Fairy bottle have to do with it not being a garburator

      Waste disposal is a weirdly American thing. That’s why when you go on holiday and chuck your food down the drain like a special-needs kid discovering toilet roll for the first time, you have to phone people like me to fix it for you

        Where I live in the UK, food is placed in a compostable bag which are taken away weekly. They turn it into energy. Way better than blending it and putting down the drain.

  This will be a fun new addition to my vocabulary.

  They’re not common in the UK.

  The little sink is just that really. I use it for pouring liquids down the drain when washing dishes and the main sink is full of water.

  Is that common in newer homes? Is it a regional thing? I’ve only ever seen garbage disposals installed in the regular sink drain, I’ve never seen one that had it’s own dedicated little sink like that!

    American here: never seen it another way. Always two sinks in one, and the one of them has a garbage disposal on it.
