To complete this BB, the minimum requirements are:
  - clean an oily dish (plate or bowl--not a skillet/pan/pot/etc) without soap
      - 95% goes into a compost or animal bucket
      - 4% can be wiped out with a piece of paper that will later be a fire starter
      - last 1% is removed with hot water
      - end result is squeaky clean

To show you've completed this Badge Bit, you must show proof of the following (as pictures or a video < 2 mins):

 - the oily dish after the meal is over
 - the food scraps going into a compost or animal bucket (if applicable)
 - the plate being wiped with a piece of paper for future fire starter
 - the last bit of oil being removed with hot water
 - the newly clean dish

Cleaned a very greasy dish which was covered in butter without soap. I'd never done this before and I was quite surprised at how clean the dish came out even without soap.
