Chips (or to our American friends, fries) although there's sort
of a distinction between French Fries and Chips in the UK 😉
My friend's eyes were too big for their bellies when visiting the fish and chip shop, so they're going in the hotbin (no salt has hit them, people don't worry)
Kind of wish I would have frozen them and tried to air fry them, in hindsight 😭😭

I generally don’t compost cooked food as salt is not good for the soil. However I’m not sure if this small of an amount would make a difference.
If it doesn’t affect your plants then I’ll take it as a sign to compost my leftovers too 🙌
On a similar note. Potato skins. Potato skins everywhere.
They’re one of the things I can reliably grow in my dinky little patio “garden” so I’m always drowning in potato skins.
With cooked food, it often works better if you break the cooked shell in order to let microbes into the hydrated interior quicker ! Also, depending on your compost method you can mitigate salt inclusion through wet drip
Potato potato
Why is salt bad?
I have also composted chippies…
Curious what you normally compost if you consider potato to be weird.
The oil from frying is more of an issue than salt
You need to open the tea bags. The paper is actually plastic.
No salt on the chippy chips? Burn the heretic
