I bathed like the romans! I slathered myself in grapeseed and avocado oil and essential oil scents and then scraped it off with a kitchen scrapey tool. It took about 30 minutes, and I feel clean and look soft. Also every inch of my skin smells incredible.

Did you put the leftover grease into a container, then the container into the fridge, and ultimately the garbage?

I wiped it onto a towel and then threw it in the washing machine. I know I'm not supposed to dry it!

Why not dry it? I thought the intention is to keep excess grease out of the sewers (where large quantities may form fatbergs). Washing with grease may have been a mistake for this reason(?), but surely sending it down with soap is preferable to plain water?

Up until this reply I was fully expecting you to do the bathwater hustle and sell the scrapings to uh people in need. Not sure if disappointed.
