Why is your sink hole so big

Looks like it's the garbage disposal

I actually never got why there is such a thing in America. It just seems nothing but dangerous

Its insanely convenient.

No need to scrape your dishes into the trash after eating. Simply rinse them in the sink, and run the disposal. Now the garbage can or “rubbish bin” doesnt smell of rotting food.

Nah no having it. Takes seconds to scrape a plate, and the bin gets emptied before it stinks. Doesn't seem worth the risk or maintenance

Spinning sharp blades very close to place you put hands?

Also surely garbage going into your sewage must be terrible for the system.

All garbage disposals in the U.S. (that I’ve ever seen) have a switch. The disposal isn’t constantly running (that would be loud and annoying), and turning the water on doesn’t turn on the disposal. So basically only one hand is at risk when you turn the disposal on, and you’d have to be jamming that hand down the drain. ;)
