    Garbage disposals do exist. Even so, they’re not really meant to be grinding up a whole bunch of food, and neither are the pipes really meant to handle that quantity of solids, even in ground up

      Yeah but if op had a garbage disposal they wouldn’t care about touching wet food since they wouldn’t have to do anything but push it into the drain with a utensil. Only with a normal drain would you have to grab the food bits out with your hand.

        Valid point, personally we keep a mesh catch over ours to keep anything really big from getting down there and so we can control what goes down into it.
