Waste disposal is a weirdly American thing. That’s why when you go on holiday and chuck your food down the drain like a special-needs kid discovering toilet roll for the first time, you have to phone people like me to fix it for you
Where I live in the UK, food is placed in a compostable bag which are taken away weekly. They turn it into energy. Way better than blending it and putting down the drain.
Is that common in newer homes? Is it a regional thing? I’ve only ever seen garbage disposals installed in the regular sink drain, I’ve never seen one that had it’s own dedicated little sink like that!
What is the purpose of the little tiny sink on the left?
Don’t sink shame bro
I’m not shaming! Maybe it’s something important? Maybe I need a tiny little extra sink next to my sink? What have I been missing out on???
The small one is to use as a sink when the big one is full of week old dirty dishes.
Ah, so it’s exactly like the 2 sided sink I already have, but one side is smaller lol
You definitely need a tiny little extra sink next to your sink.
I don’t know how I lived without one to be honest.
garburator
Note the bottle of Fairy, the UK equivalent of Dawn. It’s not a waste disposal, it’s a fucking useless sponge holder, in my experience
what does the Fairy bottle have to do with it supposedly not being a garburator

weird, it’s common where I live (Poland, Europe)
edit: common may be an exaggeration, I could probably list like 5 or 6 homes of my family members and close friends which do have it
edit2: oh we also have Fairy so this may as well be in Poland lol
edit3: the label in the photo is in English so it’s unlikely
This will be a fun new addition to my vocabulary.
They’re not common in the UK.
The little sink is just that really. I use it for pouring liquids down the drain when washing dishes and the main sink is full of water.

American here: never seen it another way. Always two sinks in one, and the one of them has a garbage disposal on it.
Rinsing sink, for kitchens with limited counter space. My kitchen is small and has one of these. It’s just wide enough for one of these.
Have you got a link that isn’t Amashite?
You can have one filled with water and the other freely draining for different steps of cleaning
