I've learned that no disposal is invincible!!

AMEN Venus, that is for sure!! From your comment I'm guessing you have variation of an ISE, they hate onions!!
Never had any problems with potato peelings though...

Keep the bones out of there, Jeff. No matter how strong the motor or grinding ring is, you'll absolutely shorten it's life with bones. Did anyone ever get a plastic milk bottle cap ring under a Badger impeller? It's next to impossible to get out, and then the damn thing rusts onto the fly wheel. Gar-baaaage, those Badgers!

make no bones about it

No worries on bones Bobby, most of the chicken I cook is boneless, skinless breasts, no bones there! Same with pork chops, boneless.
I may get KFC once or twice a year, that would be it.
I've never cared for BBQ ribs, so none there either.

I can remember my mom putting rib bones down our Hotpoint disposal, it sounded like it had rocks in it! It would also jam if too many went down at one time, and of course there was the *shrapnel* to watch out for too...

Did anyone ever get hit in the head with a flying watermelon rind? Ouch!!

Do tell,

Bobby o Boston, do tell.

That sounds like something out of a Lucy episode, however.

My former ISE

use to spit up quite alot, I always blamed the 1.0 hp motor, if there was anything in the chamber when you hit the switch you'd get wet!
