Microwave Alert: Non-Veg Food Can Explode! Learn Safety Tips Now
- •Heating non-vegetarian food in a microwave can cause explosions due to rapid steam buildup.
- •High moisture content in non-veg food, especially with skin or casing (e.g., Frankfurter sausages, chicken with skin), traps steam.
- •Pressure from trapped steam, uneven heating, and excessive food quantity increase the risk of bursting and messy cleanups.
- •Always use microwave-safe glass or ceramic containers and cover food with a wet tissue or lid, but do not seal tightly.
- •To prevent splattering and bursting, heat food for a relatively longer time at a lower power setting.
Why It Matters: Follow microwave safety rules for non-veg food to prevent explosions and messy cleanups.
