Default Compost cooked food?

OK, so how do the rats know you've cooked it? Maybe they're watching
through the kitchen window. Must be tapping my phone line. I knew we
shouldn't have gone away from BT. That must be why 136,000 people have gone
back since Christmas. Rats.

One good reason is that it can attract rats and another is that it all
settles into a 'mush' that does not allow air in for the proper composting
to occur
