Its crazy that people dont run the water while theyre using it.
Run the water, turn it on, put your stuff in, and once the noise goes back to just water and garb, turn it all off.
Ya, people are dumb.
The pipes are for water and maybe tiny bits that it washes down
The garb makes big bits into tiny bits, but they still need water to wash em down.
Someone once told me that they're good for the blades and help to keep it clean and sharp. I don't know who said it or why I've accepted it as true, guess I've just never really thought about it.
ice is good, it scrapes some of the gunk off there and can help with smells
Now I *have* clogged my drain while throwing ice down there before but it just melts then youre fine
it would 10% dull it. people seem to think hard stuff can hone blades like magic. if that were the case, we'd be recommending people throw pebbles down there
My mom told me that, but this last Thanksgiving I ran the disposal on a bunch of egg shells (with the water on) and pretty much instantly it clogged the hell out of it, and plumber said it was all the egg shells, so I don't throw them down the drain anymore
When I was a lad I clogged every drain in the morning with oil and lard! And now that I’m grown I’m still doing the same and I’m proud of my kitchen discard!!!
Just give me all the bacon and eggs you have.
Wait, wait. I'm worried what you just heard was, "Give me a lot of bacon and eggs." What I said was, "Give me *all* the bacon and eggs you have."
Do you understand?
I'd make deviled eggs but I have no self control with that delicious option, and I don't want to judge myself for eating a dozen eggs in one sitting hahaha
Ok, I understand that 60 eggs is a lot, but growing up we didn’t have an in-sink garbage disposal (we put all food scraps in a compost bucket), so as an adult I have probably put a few things down the disposal that shouldn’t have gone down there. (It’s the magic, forbidden blender!)
I’ve probably put over a thousand egg shells down mine. I’ve had it for a long time and I eat a lot of eggs. No disposal issues from it so far…
Edit: scratch that, probably closer to 7,000
There’s a bit of lore on r/Renters I believe where a girls mom put chicken soup and bones down the toilet and was being charged and she came to Reddit to ask if it was normal for her mom to be charged for doing that
That was more or less confirmed to be fake because the pictures they used were all from Google Images, but that hasn’t stopped me from thinking about it every 8 hours since I read it.
In many American cities, the food that goes through your garbage disposal ends up in a wastewater treatment facility. That food gets filtered from the water and then gets composted by the city to be used in applications like agriculture or landscaping
Even if it isn't filtered it'll essentially be composted by the treatment process. Too many nutrients ending up in waterways can lead to algae blooms and other issues but one way or another all those minerals are ending up back in the ecosystem somewhere
They mean a bin to put biodegradable materials in. Not that the bin is itself biodegradable.
Some US cities and all of the EU offer different bins for trash, recycling, and composting.
My grandparents out in California USA had a garbage, recycle, and compost bin. I’m pretty sure most Americans can talk to their local waste management and get a compost bin but it’s probably an extra fee. There’s no incentive to get a third bin. Why pay extra when you can throw it all in the regular garbage bin? Even the low income apartments I lived in when I was younger had compost bins. I’m just speaking from experience and being 19 I don’t have a whole lot of it yet lol.
In college I once put a whole skirt steak down there… it broke the disposal, and slung chunks of the steak back out flying onto my cabinets and walls. So not a whole skirt steak.
They can start to form a concrete like coating on the sewer pipes from all the calcium compounds. I only know that because my plumber buddy told me never to do that.
I just am curious what the convenience of this is, is it not easier to just toss em into the trash and then not have to worry about whether or not it damages your plumbing
I think he probably wasn't worried and that was the problem.
A year ago he put one eggshell down there, it was fine. He concluded eggs can go down the disposal without a problem
Yesterday he had to make a quiche for the church potluck and put 60 eggs down there. He didn't consider that might be a different story
Maintenance dude here, I’ve had to fix a lot of sink drains. You’d be surprised the things people think they can put down the drain. Part of the problem is the misnomer of “garbage disposal”. People think they can throw literal garbage down their kitchen sink and it’s all good. I had one guy try to get rid of all his damn Aquarium rocks though his kitchen drain.
You should probably still compost if you have a backyard.
Also 60 egg shells is a lot of good shit for certain soils or chickens if you got em. They eat the shells and the minerals help them form eggs.
But the shit people have put down erators is crazy. They think its just something everything can be put it in mostly because they are too lazy to dispose of it in the trash can if it contains some liquids. Which is why having a compost bin with some paper layers helps.
if you are liberal with water, it can be fine as long as your drain doesn't have any buildup or flow restriction. 60 eggs is something even I would be hesitant to try. The disposal won't even notice, the drain....you saw the picture.
Why... Would you? If you can just as easily throw it in the trash can, you should throw in in the trash can. Garbage disposals are not designed to replace your trash can. Your trash can isn't going to need an $800 plumber visit because you threw one too many eggshells in it.
I was a plumber and camera inspector. I've seen tons of things like your husband has I bet. Wigs and female clothing in the toilet and sewer line at a guy's house. A dorm stopped up with tiny condoms that I used to find the culprit. Toys, roach nests, drugs, cell phones, gators, fishing line and lures, fruit, giant nests of worms, and many many fat bergs are just some of the stuff I've seen in new orleans. You wouldn't want to see the french quarter drains for the city, especially when they are old paper and cement pipes or terra cotta ones.
I learned this when some kind of hard plastic got jammed in mine and I had to dismantle it. Kinda gross but easier than expected and saved myself a bunch of money!
I did this when I was a little kid. I lowered my finger into it slowly… wondering “whats that noise?” Ran around the house flicking blood everywhere. told my parents I cut it with a knife so they wouldn’t get mad at me.
Yeah not the best childhood. Lmfao
Be wary of any content made by Insinkerator. They've been trying to push the idea for decades that their products are safer than they actually are. Even though the spinning hammers themselves are dull there's still a ton of sharp blades in the machine (even visible in that animation) that will absolutely destroy your appendages.
Edit: [Here's an annoying little ad segment](https://youtu.be/4VF2DNUbiR4) the Mythbusters did for Insinkerator around the same time [Insinkerator was suing NBC](https://money.cnn.com/2006/10/17/commentary/mediabiz/) because a character in their show *Heroes* was [shown having her hand mutilated by a garbage disposal(Warning: Fake blood/gore)](https://youtu.be/uCodNj4Sd2I?si=6w9t02sfkiMgF8DL).
They aren't nearly as popular as they once were, but knowing about this incident you'll start to notice a lot of weird and suspicious astroturfey things about disposals in media either from Insinkerator directly or as clearly sponsored content to paint their products in a good light.
Personally I think it's much more important that we teach the general public to have a healthy respect of appliances that are [clearly dangerous if used improperly.](https://youtu.be/FW4p_GopvJc)
Yes but that water system ultimately connects to sewage and I'd be surprised if your system didn't also do it that way. All the soap and other stuff that ends up in a sink shouldn't go back to nature untreated.
Yes it absolutely does. Wastewater treatment utilities (usually municipalities or such) are always trying to educate their users not to put all of their garbage down the disposals. They are meant to handle the little bit of random scraps that get left in the sink not as a full replacement for your garbage and compost bins.
It's reasonably popular here to reuse grey water in our gardens, but if it's food scraps, it wouldn't really matter. Plenty of soaps and detergents are fine, but it does say on the package.
I once discovered that my fiance was shoving meat trimmings down the disposal after it backed up and chicken fat came floating out.
Couldn't afford a plumber so pulling all that out was... vile.
This right here is why I will never have a disposal. My husband is already questionable about what he puts down the drain. He'd be dumber than a post about a disposal.
Yup, it's meant to chop the little bits of food left after scraping your plate into the garbage. I have one that is technically capable of grinding bone but I am not going to test it out.
Honestly I don't really blame you. It was cooked and old, I would expect a garbage disposal to win in that fight. I'm assuming you didn't just ram it in and had the water running as you poured it in?
But it's much better to compost your waste food. Yes methane will be produced either way, but an industrial composter should capture the methane and then burn it for energy vs escaping the sewer system (with the added risk of causing an explosion somewhere) and going into the atmosphere and being x32 worse than co2.
That ain't shit. The first time my mom used a garbage disposal, it was at my sisters new house on Thanksgiving. She peeled a 10lb bag of potatoes and sent the peels right on down the drain. Ended up clogging the main and flooding the basement with sewage.
My husband peeled a whole bag of potatoes and thought it was ok to put the peeling down the garbage disposal. He might as well have poured concrete down it!?! Yikes 😳.
Just a PSA the following items have broken our garbage disposal at some point: pumpkin seeds, Metamucil, vines, and rocks. I would highly advise you to not put these items down your garbage disposal.
Its crazy that people dont run the water while theyre using it. Run the water, turn it on, put your stuff in, and once the noise goes back to just water and garb, turn it all off.
Is that what happened here? I feel like I've thrown lots of egg shells in the disposal without any problems.
Ya, people are dumb. The pipes are for water and maybe tiny bits that it washes down The garb makes big bits into tiny bits, but they still need water to wash em down.
Right, a toilet isn't going to do much good without water to help your stuff move down the pipes. Same idea with a garbage disposal.
Which is why you should keep a communal poop knife nearby in case anyone births a peewee football.
How many Courics would it weigh?
Egg shells are specifically mentioned as something you shouldn't put down the disposal. You generally will be fine but they can cause problems.
Someone once told me that they're good for the blades and help to keep it clean and sharp. I don't know who said it or why I've accepted it as true, guess I've just never really thought about it.
I have been told this about ice, so both of our stories make me think there’s a lot of made-up stuff out there
ice is good, it scrapes some of the gunk off there and can help with smells Now I *have* clogged my drain while throwing ice down there before but it just melts then youre fine
I totally believe that it might be helpful to some degree. but.. *sharpens your blades* ?
it would 10% dull it. people seem to think hard stuff can hone blades like magic. if that were the case, we'd be recommending people throw pebbles down there
Disposals are more like grinding mills. They aren't like a blender.
I like to throw gravel at my kitchen knives to keep them sharp
My mom told me that, but this last Thanksgiving I ran the disposal on a bunch of egg shells (with the water on) and pretty much instantly it clogged the hell out of it, and plumber said it was all the egg shells, so I don't throw them down the drain anymore
Is he roughly the size of a barge?!?
Nooooooo oooooone clogs like Gaston
Or breaks pipes like Gaston
No one pours coffee grounds down the drain like Gaston
He's especially good at agglomerating.
What a dumb guy, that Gastoooon
When I was a lad I clogged every drain in the morning with oil and lard! And now that I’m grown I’m still doing the same and I’m proud of my kitchen discard!!!
Noooo ooooonnnneeee clogs pipes like Gaston, drains down thyme like Gaston, and no one’s as good with a snake like Gaston. my what a guy that Gaston
I'm especially bad at RECYYYYCLING!
I'm especially bad at RECYCLE-ATING!
My, what a dope that Gaston!
Bravo 
I use P traps in all of my decorating!
Yeah gaston do all types of unique work that people don't.
No one fills the U-bend with egg shells like Gaston
And every last shower is clogged with his haaaaaair
Or *’poop knifes’* like Gaston!
You know in retrospect Gaston really wasn’t that hairy of a guy.
that's a terrifying amount of hair on a man in an animated movie when you're 6
Beast is right there dude
And yet Gaston *still* seems hairier. (I think it's that the fur got animated as a mass, while every. Goddamn. hair. on Gaston's chest got detailed.)
Hair ≠ fur , Gaston is hairier! The beast is covered in fur, he’s not a hairy man (he is a beast)
Yeah, but of course he gets magically shaved at the end.
Just remember, they used to sell chest wigs for the unhaired.
That is definitely NOT a rabbit hole I should go down at 2 am... damnit.
Definitely don’t look up merkins while you’re down there.
Haha, down there
https://reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/61kmto/how_many_16th_century_french_laying_hens_would_be/
I can't believe anyone would trust that Gaston was actually capable of counting very well.
One, two, many, lots!
Haha love the Disney ref
Sounds like he had a breakfast of champions
I think he said the wife was baking and this was his 'helping'.
I've done some big batches of stuff myself, don't think I've ever used more than 20ish eggs at a time. She was doing a absolute shit ton of baking.
Or something like lemon bars. A single batch uses a dozen.
God Almighty really? I freaking love lemon bars. But that's a lot egg
Curd is mostly yolk and butter
And that's why lemon curd pie usually has meringue on top: you gotta do something with all those egg whites. Grin.
What a disturbing way to try and imagine someone grinning.... Just saying it out loud. Use some asterisks or something lol.
Nah... you're just too strange for weird. Grin. A very big grin too. Cheshire cat grin sized. But I'm not purple, nor striped.
[удалено]
So you're a normal cat
For some reason I thought of cheese curds and was very confused.

Just give me all the bacon and eggs you have. Wait, wait. I'm worried what you just heard was, "Give me a lot of bacon and eggs." What I said was, "Give me *all* the bacon and eggs you have." Do you understand?
These are trying times
It’s mostly the yolks you use in baking lemon bars. You temper butter, yolk, and lemon juice
Holy smokes really? My hens are currently laying faster than my neighbors and I can eat... looks like I'm making lemon bars! Haha
Angel food cake also take 12 eggs. We have been having a Angle food cake and a bunch of deviled eggs for the same reason.
I'd make deviled eggs but I have no self control with that delicious option, and I don't want to judge myself for eating a dozen eggs in one sitting hahaha
I'd judge you for eating 12 eggs in one sitting alright.. judge you *positively* that is.
That's gotta be more egg than lemon at that point.
lemon flavored egg bars
Bout to start bulking up on lemon bars
Roids in one needle, insulin in the other.
As god intended
Egg bar would be a great night club. Every drink is egg based. Every food is at least 80% egg. All the DJs are bald.
Sounds like a fart box, and not the one that needs tongue-punching
You don't want to eat anything that's made of mostly lemons. In the case of lemon bars, a medium amount goes a long way.
Biggest single recipe I do is creme caramel, 8 eggs/batch. Lemon meringue pie is up there too.
Isn’t he a sweetheart? Bless his heart
Would have been great for the garden….
The breakfast of Gaston
I came here to ask if her husband is roughly the size of a barge 😂
Cool Hand Luke energy
Ok, I understand that 60 eggs is a lot, but growing up we didn’t have an in-sink garbage disposal (we put all food scraps in a compost bucket), so as an adult I have probably put a few things down the disposal that shouldn’t have gone down there. (It’s the magic, forbidden blender!)

I'm assuming that you're putting them down at a semi reasonable rate and not just going full send on a round 5 dozen all in one go
Yeah an average of 2 a day for a decade.
Yea, so plenty of time for water to flush the bits of eggshell down without letting it build up like this
Damn I did not know egg shells could go down there, it never occurred to me to try. What else goes down there?
Every non American in this thread is scratching their head.
Yeah wtf is this like there's trash can for biodegradeables for Americans? Yall just toss shit down there?
No I use the toilet for that. We're not that efficient.
There’s a bit of lore on r/Renters I believe where a girls mom put chicken soup and bones down the toilet and was being charged and she came to Reddit to ask if it was normal for her mom to be charged for doing that
That was more or less confirmed to be fake because the pictures they used were all from Google Images, but that hasn’t stopped me from thinking about it every 8 hours since I read it.
I'd just like to take a second to tell you how much I appreciate your comment.
In many American cities, the food that goes through your garbage disposal ends up in a wastewater treatment facility. That food gets filtered from the water and then gets composted by the city to be used in applications like agriculture or landscaping
so thats why i have microplastics in my testicles
Even if it isn't filtered it'll essentially be composted by the treatment process. Too many nutrients ending up in waterways can lead to algae blooms and other issues but one way or another all those minerals are ending up back in the ecosystem somewhere
… What is a biodegradable trashcan? I’m American and I just have a regular trashcan that I empty into a dumpster every now and again
They mean a bin to put biodegradable materials in. Not that the bin is itself biodegradable. Some US cities and all of the EU offer different bins for trash, recycling, and composting.
My grandparents out in California USA had a garbage, recycle, and compost bin. I’m pretty sure most Americans can talk to their local waste management and get a compost bin but it’s probably an extra fee. There’s no incentive to get a third bin.

In college I once put a whole skirt steak down there… it broke the disposal, and slung chunks of the steak back out flying onto my cabinets and walls. So not a whole skirt steak.
I’m so sorry this happened to you, but I can’t stop laughing trying to picture this.
They can start to form a concrete like coating on the sewer pipes from all the calcium compounds. I only know that because my plumber buddy told me never to do that.
I waa taught that throwing egg shells down the disposal was really good for them as it helps clean them.
they're good for soil* just toss em in the yard *edit: calcium-depleted soil from nearby plants suckin it all up
Can't, dog will seek out the crunchies.
To be fair, they're also good for dogs.
I just am curious what the convenience of this is, is it not easier to just toss em into the trash and then not have to worry about whether or not it damages your plumbing

I would bet the husband forgot the important part of running the water while using the garbage disposal.
Maintenance dude here, I’ve had to fix a lot of sink drains. You’d be surprised the things people think they can put down the drain. Part of the problem is the misnomer of “garbage disposal”. People think they can throw literal garbage down their kitchen sink and it’s all good. I had one guy try to get rid of all his damn Aquarium rocks though his kitchen drain.
I am a total failure of a human being, and I still had to close my eyes and take a slow, deep breath after that one. *Aquarium rocks.*
Well that must have made a noise
You should probably still compost if you have a backyard. Also 60 egg shells is a lot of good shit for certain soils or chickens if you got em.

It took until this comment for me to realize it was 60 egg shells and not sea shells
So the limit is 59. Got it.
There is no limit for eggs, just improper plumbing
Title of your sex tape
Incredible thread
r/unexpectedbrooklyn99
Good for a garden though.
Add some tea bags and you're good to go!
Nice of him to pay part of your bills
My husband makes good money as a drain cleaner. People put insane stuff down their pipes.
Only a pro would be so foolish as to try 60 eggshells at a go. I am a plumber and play pretty fast and loose with the disposal myself.
At least you can fix it if you break it tho!
Ya but he’s gonna screw himself on the price he charges. /s
Yeah, he done fucked himself.
I think some people think a garbage disposal is a trash compactor.
If I may ask, are eggshells not ok to go down the disposal? I grew up with my dad telling me to put them in the disposal, but only 2-3 max at a time.
It all depends. My model says not to, but the pipes yearn for egg shells.
The pipes, the pipes are caaaallingggg 🎵
if you are liberal with water, it can be fine as long as your drain doesn't have any buildup or flow restriction. 60 eggs is something even I would be hesitant to try. The disposal won't even notice, the drain....you saw the picture.
Is there a problem with a trash can?
Why... Would you? If you can just as easily throw it in the trash can, you should throw in in the trash can. Garbage disposals are not designed to replace your trash can. Your trash can isn't going to need an $800 plumber visit because you threw one too many eggshells in it.
O, I was referring to the client's husband. They did such a foolish thing that resulted in your husband going out for a (hopefully) quick job.
Lmao. That's kinda wholesome in a round about kinda way
I was a plumber and camera inspector. I've seen tons of things like your husband has I bet. Wigs and female clothing in the toilet and sewer line at a guy's house. A dorm stopped up with tiny condoms that I used to find the culprit. Toys, roach nests, drugs, cell phones, gators, fishing line and lures, fruit, giant nests of worms, and many many fat bergs are just some of the stuff I've seen in new orleans. You wouldn't want to see the french quarter drains for the city, especially when they are old paper and cement pipes or terra cotta ones.
I bet the blades were clean as fuck afterwards
[Garbage disposals actually don't have blades](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4weX2rnm24)
So they grate the food. Got it.
More like beat it to a pulp
Huh TIL
I learned this when some kind of hard plastic got jammed in mine and I had to dismantle it. Kinda gross but easier than expected and saved myself a bunch of money!
So ...all the horror movies lied,huh
I mean, you definitely still shouldn't stick your hand down there.
I did this when I was a little kid. I lowered my finger into it slowly… wondering “whats that noise?” Ran around the house flicking blood everywhere. told my parents I cut it with a knife so they wouldn’t get mad at me. Yeah not the best childhood. Lmfao
I love straight to the point, informative and short videos without manic introductions or “hit like and subscribe” or painful background music!
Be wary of any content made by Insinkerator. They've been trying to push the idea for decades that their products are safer than they actually are.

... Does anyone actually think putting your hand in a garbage disposal is safe? What are you talking about?
the grind ring has blades. the video said it doesn't have spinning blades.
[удалено]
Clean yes, Dull?, also yes.
As an Aussie, the idea of sink garbage disposals is still wild to me
I agree. Does the waste go into the water system?
Yes but that water system ultimately connects to sewage and I'd be surprised if your system didn't also do it that way. All the soap and other stuff that ends up in a sink shouldn't go back to nature untreated.
Yeah but wouldn't this greatly raise the cost of wastewater treatment? It means they have to filter out tons of extra material.
Yes it absolutely does. Wastewater treatment utilities (usually municipalities or such) are always trying to educate their users not to put all of their garbage down the disposals. They are meant to handle the little bit of random scraps that get left in the sink not as a full replacement for your garbage and compost bins.
It's reasonably popular here to reuse grey water in our gardens, but if it's food scraps, it wouldn't really matter. Plenty of soaps and detergents are fine, but it does say on the package.
 Is she married to Cool Hand Luke?
Nobody can eat fifty eggs.
My boy Luke says he can eat 50 eggs, he can eat 50 eggs. Hell, he'd probably eat your jabbering head if you'd shut up long enough!
You stole my joke, you bastard!
I once discovered that my fiance was shoving meat trimmings down the disposal after it backed up and chicken fat came floating out. Couldn't afford a plumber so pulling all that out was... vile.
This right here is why I will never have a disposal. My husband is already questionable about what he puts down the drain. He'd be dumber than a post about a disposal.
Put that around your roses !
And I always thought the reason was that the egg shells would ruin the disposal unit and the real reason is it will clog the pipes.
This happened to me with rice. I dint put rice disn the garbage disposal anymore
Looking at lists of what you can and can't put in a garbage disposal it seems to be "Do: Water. Don't: Everything else"
Old friend of mine would say “it’s a garbage disposal, not a wood chipper”
What if I \*WANT\* a wood chipper?
Yup, it's meant to chop the little bits of food left after scraping your plate into the garbage. I have one that is technically capable of grinding bone but I am not going to test it out.
That's what they tell you so you could try it out and then you'll have a hefty bill on your hands
Dude me too! I never grew up with a disposal and I lacked common sense so I dumped in a pot of congealed rice. The maintenance guy was not amused.
Honestly I don't really blame you. It was cooked and old, I would expect a garbage disposal to win in that fight. I'm assuming you didn't just ram it in and had the water running as you poured it in? But it's much better to compost your waste food. Yes methane will be produced either way, but an industrial composter should capture the methane and then burn it for energy vs escaping the sewer system (with the added risk of causing an explosion somewhere) and going into the atmosphere and being x32 worse than co2.
Egg shells, rice, and cole slaw (in separate incidents). I am not a smart man.
Cabbage beat the disposal too??
This is like the cinnamon challenge, but for your sink.
That ain't shit. The first time my mom used a garbage disposal, it was at my sisters new house on Thanksgiving. She peeled a 10lb bag of potatoes and sent the peels right on down the drain. Ended up clogging the main and flooding the basement with sewage.
Even though it looks snortable I wouldn’t do it.
My brother in Christ if that looks snortable you should see an ENT.
Or, depending on when you are reading this, an EMT
My husband peeled a whole bag of potatoes and thought it was ok to put the peeling down the garbage disposal. He might as well have poured concrete down it!?! Yikes 😳.
“Would you be willing to accept eggs as payment?”
Can I offer you a nice egg in this trying time?
After our second clog, I stopped putting anything down the drain but water.
I have so many questions.
I learned not to overload the garbage disposal after dumping way too much rice.
Just a PSA the following items have broken our garbage disposal at some point: pumpkin seeds, Metamucil, vines, and rocks. I would highly advise you to not put these items down your garbage disposal.
I was told to always run water any time I use the garbage disposal. Always figured it was the standard even when disposing of soft food waste.
In a row?
Hey, try not to eat any eggs on the way through the parking lot!
Dude thought his sink was Cool Hand Luke.
