FOG is an acronym for Fats, Oils and Grease that comes from cooking, cooking products such as oil, shortening, lard, butter, and food products such as mayonnaise, salad dressings, sour cream, and other foods high in fat.
When poured down drains, even in small amounts, FOG tend to accumulate inside pipes. When it enters the sanitary sewer system, it can harden and cause blockages. Blockages can contribute to sewer back-ups and overflows.
