Many people still do this dangerous thing
The microwave is a commonly used household appliance. It is easy to use and has many functions, making it incredibly popular among cooking enthusiasts.
However, no matter how good an appliance is, it still has its drawbacks. If not used properly, it can lead to fires or explosions, causing more serious consequences!
These foods should never be reheated in the microwave!
Foods with skins or wrappers
Steam builds up during the reheating process, and the skin or wrapper prevents it from escaping. The pressure inside increases, making it easy for the skin or wrapper to burst, causing an explosion.
Eggs are the main culprit here! Never reheat eggs in the microwave. Occasionally, you may come across news stories about eggs exploding when heated in the microwave. This is not a joke.
Foods with low water content and high fat content
Microwave heating mainly works through the high-frequency vibration of water molecules. When heating foods with low moisture and high fat content, each part of the food quickly heats up and is prone to burning, producing harmful substances like benzopyrene, heterocyclic amines, and acrylamide, while also posing a risk of toxic explosions.
Water
A microwave should not be used to boil water, especially pure water. The microwave heats all the water at once without creating convection, simply increasing the temperature. Even when the water reaches 100 degrees, it will not boil. Water that exceeds 100 degrees without boiling is called "superheated water," which is extremely unstable. A slight disturbance can cause sudden boiling and may lead to burns.
Dried Chili Peppers
Capsaicin and other chemicals released from dried chili peppers when heated can irritate the eyes and respiratory system. Opening the microwave after heating dried chili peppers is like spraying pepper spray on yourself.
Grapes
I believe many of you have seen videos of grapes being heated in a microwave, causing sparks. Simply put, this phenomenon occurs because grapes can accumulate energy when exposed to microwave radiation. When the energy is released, it forms a strong electromagnetic field at the point of contact between the grapes, while also interacting inside two grapes.
This electromagnetic energy is so powerful that it can ionize the air and create sparks. This is why grapes heated in a microwave can cause sparks or even explode. However, you don't need to worry about fruits like pears, apples, or bananas. These can be cut into smaller pieces and heated in the microwave before eating.
