A speaker identified only as "Resident" told a Winter Haven City meeting that household cooking grease should be discarded in the trash rather than poured down drains to help keep the sewer system flowing. "This tip, you can become a grease buster too if the sewage sewer system flowing and clean," the resident said.
The comment came in three short remarks. The speaker first interjected, "Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Don't do that." They then asked where grease should be put and gave specific instructions: "Don't do that. Where do I have to put it? You gotta put it in the trash. Oh. In the garbage, not the drain." The final remark framed the advice as a simple public-education tip, urging others to adopt the practice.
