"Garbage will be refrigerated, and pressed into fertiliser pellets."

OK, verification that my wife of 22 years isn't crazy. She has always put garbage (food scraps, things that rot and smell) in the freezer in plastic bags, then clears it out on garbage day. Makes it an adventure when I go through the freezer looking for a quick meal to microwave when she's away.

I'm 40 and obtained the garbage-freezing habit from my folks. Every trash day (that was my job for many years) I'd lug a solid block or two of frigid funky food out to the can. I guess it keep nasty odors down in the fridge.

I put that stuff down the garbage disposal.

I pay $30/month for sewage, and I'm gonna get my money's worth!!!

My mother has always done that exact thing. She got tired of critters ripping into the garbage bags, so decided to freeze all edible garbage. She cuts used plastic gallon milk containers in half and uses the bottom halves as disposable garbage containers.

We do that here by my insistence; don't have to deal with foraging critters on trash day.
