Gather the kids to teach them how to keep Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) out of our sinks, toilets, septic tanks, and sewer systems. These fun free educational FOG coloring and activity book is an excellent way for kids to learn about what should and shouldn’t be put down the sink.

What do fried chicken, butter, and pizza have in common? Yes, these are all foods that we eat, but they also have the following in common? They are fatty, greasy meals.

The leftover grease from these foods can damage the sewer lines in your home and those buried beneath the streets. The fats, oils, and grease that are poured down the drain in your kitchen sink stick to the insides of the pipes. This can eventually clog the pipes that could result in a sewer backup inside your home or an overflow on the streets in your area. These large messes are awful for the environment, stinky, unclean, and expensive to fix.

Therefore, when your children assist you in the kitchen, always remind them to follow the safety precautions to protect your sewer pipes and maintain a clean home and neighborhood.
