Dont know about anyone else but whenever someone in the house occasionally but repeatedly uses a cup with a handle or certain bowls that say microwave safe, the dish ends up with a very fine crack right through the dish which becomes more evident over time and eventually the dish will break apart. Also some slight bubbles appear in the wall of the dish as if the material inside the glaze expanded by the microwave a tiny bit and didnt affect the glaze too much, just leaves one or two small bumps like a small pimple size. I find the only bowls to use that say microwave safe are ones where the design of the dish is completely even, curves, not a flat base bottom, and no handles because the heat seems to concentrate unevenly on, in the dish. Not talking plastic here, I dont use plastic anything much, its crockery, etc.

[@aileenclarke9651]

Seriously, these people need Microwave lessons. You cannot cook eggs in the shell in your oven in a few minutes. No, far less than that, if you must cook an egg in it’s shell put a pin hole in one end and cook for about 40seconds on a lower heat level, personally I’ve never bothered. You MUST defrost meat, chicken and fish BEFORE cooking in a Microwave as you would with conventional cooking. When you put a cup of coffee to reheat up in the Microwave, (it doesn’t change the flavour) as the coffee heats it will transfer heat to the container, (glass or mug etc)depending on how microwave able the container is. Don’t use foil, cheap plastics, metal, fine glass etc to cook in your micro. Use only microwave suitable items only. Read the book that is with the oven you bought, also buy a microwave cooking book, and enjoy your food.

[@anjannysingh1988]

I don’t know how many people know not to microwave eggs, but it is a very dangerous thing to do, there should be a warning about this.

Within seconds the egg exploded and blew out the microwave door in pieces!! I was in shock thinking what if I was in front of the microwave.

Are there really people out there who don't already know most of this? It's just common sense. Who microwaves bread for more than like 15 seconds at the most anyway? Rarely, you may come upon something that acts differently than you expect it to in a microwave, for instance, the clams in soup like chowders will actually pop & splatter unless you cover the bowl with a paper towel to catch the popping splatter. Chili & sauces like spaghetti sauce will splatter too once it gets hot. Make sure to stir them occasionally to redistribute the hot spots & make sure to cover loosely with paper towels.

[@CraigTube]

I disagree with the meat thing. I thaw meat all the time in the microwave, done it for years and years. You use a very low power level, like 3 or lower, and do it a couple minutes at a time and check. The Inverter microwaves do a much better job at this than the standard ones. With ground beef, you just remove the parts that got thawed and keep going at low power until all is done. With chicken, you can wrap the small ends of drumsticks with foil ON A PLATE so they don't start to cook during defrosting. Yes you can put foil in the microwave. Just not too much and don't let it get too close to the walls or floor of the microwave. Some microwaves have metal racks in them. I never thaw fish in the microwave, it's too hard to stop from cooking in there.
