    Do you not scrape your plate before putting it in the sink? That seems like it would attract flies.

      Garbage disposals do exist. Even so, they’re not really meant to be grinding up a whole bunch of food, and neither are the pipes really meant to handle that quantity of solids, even in ground up

        Yeah but if op had a garbage disposal they wouldn’t care about touching wet food since they wouldn’t have to do anything but push it into the drain with a utensil. Only with a normal drain would you have to grab the food bits out with your hand.

          Valid point, personally we keep a mesh catch over ours to keep anything really big from getting down there and so we can control what goes down into it.
