Gun powder residue is the first thing that came to my mind.

Evidence and forensic technician's jobs center around the collection and preservation of residue.

In the same way, archeologists carefully curate and study the residue from past times in the search for truth.

Oh I had worked on a story involving crime scenes, but ultimately realized that my knowledge—stemming from watching Dexter and Body of Proof—was not even remotely enough to be convincing. I stopped. :D 

Wish I could accompany someone gathering residue.

Some of the residue isn't pleasant. Sights and odors, especially odors, stick in the memory. Be careful what you wish for.

The residue my cats leave behind in the cat pit isn't pleasant, hence the need for air freshener.

When my son cooks his bacon, he leaves some of the bacon bits and grease to fry his eggs. When the frying pan cools, he scrapes out the congealed bits and grease and puts it in a container he keeps in the refrigerator for those times when he doesn't have bacon with his eggs. Not the healthiest diet, but he's already lived a life on the edge of normalcy. Besides, you can't fault a man who bakes his own bread.

I remember when I was a boy our cook had a bacon grease container. It had a metal strainer under the lid to separate the bits out. I think she used bacon grease in nearly everything.
