GETTING RID OF THE GREASE IN THE KITCHEN

WHAT IS GREASE?

F.O.G is the acronym for Fats, Oils, and Grease. This is what commercial kitchens such as restaurants, fast food, mom and pop type kitchens, churches, casinos and any place that has commercial equipment that is used the cook food that is served to the people in any given city or town. Basically is consists of all the vegetable, canola , lard, peanut oil, and heavy cream sauces that is used to make the foods that we eat today. Although most people refer to this as the term GREASE.

THE EFFECTS GREASE HAS OUTSIDE THE KITCHEN

On the surface, one can think how bad can a little oil, liquid fats be of any harm. A little doesn’t harm, its the build up over long periods of time without the proper cleaning and maintenance taken on the affected areas. Over time they get rinsed down the drain through traps and then through the waterlines, in the sewer into the mainlines of the city. Without proper maintenance this can be very dangerous to the restaurant or business that is servicing the food to the public.
