      This is what my mates who work in the kitchen tell me as well. The gunnk is part of the recipe it seems.

    Haven’t done that in ages. You see, the way it works with adhd is that I use the oven and when it’s hot and I’m inserting the food, I’m reminded that I’ll need to clean it. After eating the oven is too hot to clean and by the time it’s again at room temperature I have forgotten the thing even exists.

      Could you put a brightly coloured post-it on the oven, so you’ll notice it next time you’re in the kitchen?

          Yes, that’s how it works. Then you channel that hatred into cleaning the oven, even though you don’t really want to.

    The grease is part of my oven right now. If i clean it, there will be no oven just a hollow shell.

    The worst houshold chore. So irritating and time consuming. Then I bought a ‘self cleaning’ oven. A life changer.

          Birds have incredibly efficient lungs, which makes them incredibly sensitive lungs at the same time.

          Another danger of a similar kind is teflon or similarly coated things heating up. For humans it might be about as bad as flu-like symptoms, with our glorified air balloons of a set of lungs, but in birds it shreds the lungs from the inside

        Yeah this always bothered me. If it can kill birds is it really OK for you? A coal miner wouldn’t approve of this. I can certainly smell it. I only do this every three years or so and always in the fall when I can leave the windows open for quite a few hours.

        I had one of these, filthy when I moved in, so I tried the self-cleaning, pyroclastic cloud killer mode or whatever it’s called, and it gave off so much smoke I had to have all the windows open and disconnect the smoke detector and it still looked like shit afterwards.

          It can take several runs if it’s really bad. And you still need to wipe it out between runs. It can’t teleport grease, it can only burn it so you can wipe it off.

      Yes, it means it’s safe to invade Florida or OP needs replacement binoculars. Depends on the context.

    You just reminded me that I ran the cleaning cycle and didn’t wipe it up afterwards. It’s been 3 days. Thank you and curse ADHD.

      Something called krystalsæbe in Danish - kinda equivalent to brown soap. In addition, let it soak for 24 h

    I keep a desktop convection/airfrying oven next to the real oven. Every 2-3 years I recycle it and get a new one.

    Big ovens are a fucking nightmare to clean :)
