If we do... it just jiggles the molecules, makes them move fast. But not fast enough to jump. unless maybe you put the plastic shit right next to your food.

Microwave in ceramic or expensive tupperware, no cling film. And don't use it to actiually cook stuff. Defrost and reheat.

Your brain will stay in tact if you watch the food cooking through the little window. Trust me. I'm a Dr. You may get very bored, though, after the first or second time. Unless you're sub-vegetable in the IQ stakes. or a Dr. in microwaving.

If you get bored, you're microwaving boring stuff. Solution.

Healthwise, there's some evidence you shouldn't microwave stuff in many kinds of plastic. But that's not a problem with the microwaves themselves; except insofar as they let you heat stuff up in plastic at all.

I think the most important attribute is that when you spill liquid it won't run through. I think it is time for a new microwave.

My (non cooking literate) wife microwaved an egg. I still haven't gotten it all off the kitchen ceiling.

Why oh why do people do stuff like this!

A guy blew the door off the microwave with an egg at my workplace (two careers ago). Stank the lunchroom up to high heaven.

Did it coincide with his handing in his resignation? Imagine fish stew with an uncracked egg floating in it..... program for 10 minutes on way to bosses office.... "That's it, I quit!".... hit start on way past......
