What looks like a plastic snack wrapper, bottom left, forms part of the only remaining piece of the 130 ton, 250 meter long fatberg, removed from the sewers in the Whitechapel area of east London in the latter months of 2017, displayed during a media preview at the Museum of London in London, Thursday, Feb. 8, 2018.

The Whitechapel fatberg was formed from a mass of oil and grease congealed with wet wipes and other sanitary products. (AP Photo/Matt Dunham)
