A many years ago we replaced all of our microwave scorched containers with glass snapware and banned plastics from the microwave. Then the microwave died two years ago and we have not bothered to replace it.

    Haven’t had a microwave in about ten years now. There’s never been a situation where I’ve missed it

    I basically only used it to separate slices of vegan bacon. 20 seconds was enough to defrost 2 slices on the top and bottom, but leave the rest of the block frozen.

    Where would one get vegan bacon by the block?
