Looks like a glass jar to contain water. Previous tenants could have used them to store literally anything so yeah, residual fats doesn't sound that surprising now that I think about it.
Maybe I should be paying more attention to the stuff around me instead of only while I'm overseas 🙃
Ahh thank you! Kinda freaked out seeing so much weird stuff on the water's surface. Out of curiosity would regular consumption of such water have any adverse effects?
It's a rented apartment, so very likely the previous tenants have cooked near the kettle
Could you explain how fats would end up in kettles? Since tap water should be the only thing going in
Wow I just learned of Hard Water vs Soft Water. I googled and yeah its a moderately hard Water area. So I assume this is normal (or at least nothing to be alarmed about)?
The whole apartment looks pretty clean, but the base of the kettle looked a little funky. Only realised it after drinking a cup of water
