Food 411 for One: Microwave Sponge Disaster (funny)

Following research from the University of Florida, a guy who looks like Alton Brown blows up his microwave trying to sterlize a sponge. This installment of this cooking show for people who live alone in cramped apartments also explains why microwave ovens work like Christmas carolers. Though the explosion tends to undermine the credibility of microwave-related statements in this program. Do NOT try this at home!

i thought adding water was supposed to NOT kill your microwave.

I know. There must be some other trick to it. As soon as I figure it out, I'll finish the "microwave safety tips" show.

besides metalic objects

They use polymers like polyurethan frothing while beeing produced. Since they have an enlarged surface area and consist of easily inflammable organic material they explosively burn down when confronted with heat.

Just go and get a new sponge its cheaper than wasting $100 on a new microwave

LOL

There's germs everywhere all the time. Let's stop pretending that it matters. People have lived without microwaves in the past. I've NEVER "sterilized" my spunges and I'm ALRIGHT.

better. good unexpected ending

Now, now...I think the real Alton Brown'd rather die than allow people to see his Fiery Habanero Doritos on his microwave!
