Note the bottle of Fairy, the UK equivalent of Dawn. It's not a waste disposal, it's a fucking useless sponge holder, in my experience

what does the Fairy bottle have to do with it supposedly not being a garburator

Waste disposal is a weirdly American thing. That's why when you go on holiday and chuck your food down the drain like a special-needs kid discovering toilet roll for the first time, you have to phone people like me to fix it for you

Where I live in the UK, food is placed in a compostable bag which are taken away weekly. They turn it into energy. Way better than blending it and putting down the drain.

Fun fact, burning biomass is not very good as far as emissions go. In the US waste water treatment byproducts are typically methane and fertilizer, both bottled and sold. a much better place for all that carbon, imo.

It's not burned. It goes to an Anaerobic Digester which produces electricity, gas and fertiliser.

Oh, so the same exact thing, except in your case it goes on a car instead of through the pipes.

San Diego collects compost bins from homes weekly and powers all the city buses from it

weird, it's common where I live (Poland, Europe)

edit: common may be an exaggeration, I could probably list like 5 or 6 homes of my family members and close friends which do have it

edit2: oh we also have Fairy so this may as well be in Poland lol

edit3: the label in the photo is in English so it's unlikely
