I was just thinking the same thing. I don't cook a single thing that requires fat drainage.[/quote]

Olive oil, vegetable oil, etc. are still fat.

If you make veggie tempura, for example, what are you frying in? [/quote]

But they don’t get hard so they don’t cause blockage[/quote]

You need to learn basic chemistry. ALL fats will solidify when they react with bases:

Or you can just watch any Dawn commercial that’s aired in your lifetime.

Lol, 1970s?? Um,OK grandma.

Just because Dawn solubilizes fat doesn't change the basic concept of saponification. As if anyone measures the pH of the liquids they're pouring down the drain and all along their sewer lines.  Greased dumped down the drain after using soaps may still encounter basic conditions in the drain and in your pipes that will cause saponification, causing a clog over time. [/quote]
