Fatbergs!

Well, it has been a while since I have posted anything on fatbergs, so it is time to get caught up. I found two articles recently in the New York Times. 

Happy reading, just don't be eating breakfast or something whilst reading these; the description in the lower article describes a fatberg as having "...a smell that mixes rotting meat and smelly toilet."

(The lower link comes with a lovely color photo! The photo is from 2014 when another fat berg struck London. The current fatberg is called the "Whitechapel fatberg," and it is estimated to weigh 140 tons.)
