1. bacon fat isn’t oil, it’s fat
2. keep the bacon fat for cooking later, it’s amazing - just cover the tin and stick in in the fridge, it keeps really well
3. if it’s a little bit of oil, first wipe with a paper towel, then wash with soap
4. if it’s a lot of oil, I double-bag w/ plastic grocery bags and throw in the garbage; it’ll break down at the landfill

I wish our recycling took oil, but I’m not convinced they even recycle the things they do take. It’s definitely worth checking though.
