Original Note:
The meme about washing foil and saving bacon grease was not fact checked by Facebook. It is true that people did save bacon grease and wash foil, and some people still do. There is no evidence any fact checkers ever tried to dispute those claims. https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2021/10/fact-check-meme-about-great-grandmother-washing-aluminum-foil-and-saving-bacon-grease-was-not-fact-checked.html
