OK Ive got a Nescafe jar with several sedimentary layers of varying grades of pan fats -

But what can I realistically do with it?

If there's a lot of it, get someone to collect it (there are companies who do this for free); As for re-using it, botulism is not your friend!

It is like that coloured sand in layers, except in fat. Some people like fat.


OP could grease themselves up with it and streak across a rugby match, they will not be able to hang on to you.

Timely thread. As an Atkins dieter I get loads of fat slop from my electric grille tray and not sure what to do with it. Chucking it in the bin doesn't feel like a good idea as the bin truck with crush and break the jar I put it in and the fat will leak out onto the road as it's driving along, but pouring it down the drain isn't going to end well either. So what do you do with it? confused

Warm it up. Dangle an old shoe lace in it as it cools. Put a ribbon

Around here fat goes into food recycling bin, jar goes into glass recycling bin. I thought this had been rolled out nationwide by now.

Definitely do this.

Buy some seed, mix in with melted fat, pour into a yogurt pot, poke some string through and the birds will be queuing up.

Don't hang them on your car then.

I can't think of anything else I would use rank old fat for.

All I would add to this is to get some gloves on and rub it into bark on trees. Birds naturally peck there for small insects and other nutrition from the tree.

Because those drain pipes get clogged with fat.

And the OP prefers to dispose of, rather than eat it (bacon grease mopped up by a slice of bread etc). wink

No idea why he doesn't just put it in the bin.
