I had never heard of a fatberg before reading this Yahoo article. But now that I know fatbergs exist, I want to see one, if only for scatological reasons.

Fatbergs are composed largely of cooking oil that has been poured down drains while hot and runny. Once in the cold water of the sewer system, however, the fat congeals. The solid mess then combines with “wet wipes.” The wipes are frequently labeled as “disposable” but are turning out not to be.

Cooking oil + wet wipes = fatberg, it turns out.

Thank you!

Props to @yoda808 for the pic!

Even around the world, common cuisine exists for you and me. A Starbucks in Thailand has the same look and feel (and prices) as a Starbucks in the US and even Hong Kong.

You never knew this was on the Pizza Hut menu, did you?

After consuming all this global cuisine, you do what comes naturally.

And hope you don’t mistakenly walk into the naturalness of yaks (for comparison purposes, that’s a nalgene 32-oz bottle).

Cuisine and scatology – making our world a smaller place.
