MONSTER FATBERGS ATTACK BRITISH AND IRISH SEWERS
Well not quite (poetic licence and all that), but a 64 meter long equivalent to 6 double decker buses amalgamation of fats and wet wipes has been found in a sewer in Sidmouth, England.
Fatbergs form when people put cooking oils and fats, nappies, wet wipes and sanitary products down the toilet. This fat berg is the largest discovered by the local council who estimate it will take 8 weeks to dissect this monster.
If you keep 1 new year resolution let it be not to pour fats, oil or grease down the drain or flush wet wipes down the toilet. The consequences can be significant including sewer flooding in you own home.
"Put your wipes on a diet and don’t feed the fat berg".
In 2017 a 250 meter long fatberg was found in sewers in East London, a chunk of that blockage later went on display at the museum of London.
