01

Why the pipe objects

Cheese combines fat with sticky solids and can smear onto plumbing rather than wash cleanly away.

02

Do this instead

Scrape cheese into compost where accepted or place it in the trash.

03

Already did it?

Do not chase it with boiling water or chemical drain cleaner. If drainage changes, stop using the fixture and contact a plumber.
