I used to pour it into a glass jar. But these days I’m just using a paper towel or 3 after it dries and chuckin it in the bin.

    I currently use (probably too many) paper towels to absorb the oil and then toss them into the trash can. I’m not happy with this solution, but I don’t want to pour it down the drain.

    I found this the other day https://fryaway.co/ but I haven’t tried it yet. It’s supposed to make the oil solid so you can more easily toss it.

      Looks interesting but not at that price point for me. Seems more expensive than paper towels and probably worse overall for the environment since it’d be heavier than paper towel to transport to the store. Would be interesting to compare the carbon footprint. I also like how nowhere on the page did it compare it to paper toweling it into the trash. Just pouring it down a sink or putting it in a jar lol. That’s marketing
