As others mention already, the problem is the plastic, not the microwave, even the article ends with "Go with glass". There have to be many alternatives but I happened upon cookanyday and never looked back. I almost never used the microwave oven before but these make it not only convenient, I actually like the results. Well, most times. Like many products (pressure cooker, air fryer) they want you to just do _everything_ in your new toy, but everything has its sweet spot. I use all at least once every week.

Startling number of people who either don't know how to or reject on principle actually cooking food (as opposed to merely reheating it) in their microwave, too.

And a few classist remarks and at least one usage of "white trash".

> cooking food in their microwave

There's only one recipe I semi-regularly use that I'd count as cooking in the microwave. The main reason being that the "classic" way of cooking it takes a whole day, where it only takes 20 minutes in the microwave.

I've legitimately never even considered there might be recipes that center around the microwave! Now that I know they exist I will definitely need to try one. Any recommendations?
