01
Why the pipe objects
The skin is leathery and the pit is essentially a wooden ball; neither belongs in standard plumbing.
02
Do this instead
Compost them where accepted or place them in the trash.
03
Already did it?
Turn off and disconnect disposal power. Do not reach into the chamber. Follow the appliance manual or call for service if the unit is stuck.
