    Just mash it up first. The hot bits will warm up the cold bits and vice versa. It’s all going the same way. No mouthful makes it out alive anyway

    It’s still unpleasant even if I’m pointless and temporary. I’d rather be pointless and temporary with evenly heated food; it’s going back in the microwave.

    Power level 50% for 2x the time is a good place to start for those suffering this. I use 30% and 80% regularly as well. Sometimes 10% like for softening butter. Get gud.

    Life hack: Don’t place it in the center of the turn table.

    Because of the way the microwaves propagate in the oven, there are “hot spots” and “cold spots” inside. That’s why there is a turn table so your food moves around and gets heated more evenly. But the center of the turn table always stays in the same spot.

      Mic tip #2: Instead of cooking the food at 5MW for 0.0234 seconds consider turning down da powa and leaving it on for longer.

      The rays don’t penetrate deep into the food and cooking it longer will let the outside warm the inside.

    The concept of entropy would favor the transfer of heat, it promotes movement and disorder. Entropy is your friend here and you’re blaming it because you think it sounds cool, leave entropy alone!
