explode, In addition,
the

cannot maintain
the
food at the proper

may spoil and be dangerous
to consume.

possible
damage to the oven
and perhaps
resulting
in burns. Additionally,
microwave-safe
utensils

of the hot oil, and
could result in the utensil shattering
if it contains
even a slight imperfection,
scratch or chip.
4)
EGGS
