[Small-Appliance-Cooking] Question about what is safe to be put in microwaves:

[geodom at optonline.net]

I had an experience a long time ago with one of those rotissary chickens 
that you can get at the store.  A lot of them are now in plastic containers, 
but they used to be in paper bags.  Well, I didn't know that there was foil 
inside the paper bag, because it was between the paper.  So, when I put it 
in the microwave to warm it up, it started a fire.  A sighted person 
happened to be there and saw the flash and we shut it off quick.  The 
Whirlpool directions said to leave the door shut for a while and unplug the 
microwave so the fire would be smothered.  So, that's what we did.  Pam.

Anything metal is not safe in a microwave. Also some plastic bags are not 
safe because they can melt. Also, if you put an egg in the shell in your 
microwave it will blow out the fuse. You can microwave eggs, but you have to 
crack them first. They have a special thing that you can put your egg into 
boil it in the microwave.
