YEAH THAT! Having just installed a new InsinkErator

InSinkErator’s disposal instruction manual specifically states, “Don’t grind large amounts of egg shells or fibrous materials like corn husks, artichokes, etc, to avoid possible drain blockage....my friend whose dad is a plumber says people who do that keep him in busine$$. It can result in you needing to dig up the yard to get to the pipes, because the shells get compacted with fat and create huge blockages.”

Fortunately, what used to go down the disposal, now goes in a small counter-top plastic compost container; thence to for the larger yard-waste can.
