probably don't want us to get burnt... also things can get super hot in the microwave (glass and such) and when exposed to cool air might shatter/break.
Exactly. Piping hot food out of the microwave can be unstable and bubble or sputter, causing burns.
You can probably imagine some dillweed yanking their tray out of the microwave only to be splattered with magma-hot TV dinner, and having been carted off to the ER and suffering severe emotional trauma, ends up suing the manufacturer of said food for not warning them to use what little common sense they had.
Stupid, stupid people.

The instructions on the box of SOME of the products you're microwaving tell you to wait X minutes before removing from microwave after it's done.
Anyway, I thought it might have something to do with the same reason you're not supposed to stand in front of the microwave when it's on (some level of radiation) ...
intersting i have 1300 wats microwave and never noticed that.Will read instruction when i get home and see if they mention that or not.
So that the heat has a chance to distribute itself more evenly. They suspect that you wouldn't very much enjoy a chicken pot-popsicle.
The food also continues to cook for some time after its been removed.
They don't want you cooking your GUTS.
Microwaves excite the molecules making them "rub" against one another producing friction. The friction is what heats the food. The molecules continue to move for awhile after the food is taken out of the microwave.

With some foods, the cooking process continues, or the heat to spreads more evenly through the food, after the microwave radiation stops. This is the same reason some microwaving instructions tell you to cook the food for a time, then stir it, then continue cooking.
My latest invention is the macrowave. It's actually a combination device that works like a normal microwave oven, but if you turn the plug over, it becomes a macrowave device that instantly freezes hot food. It uses DED's (Dark Emitting Diodes) as indicators.

Cool! Will it bring a kitty cat back to life if I had accidentally microwaved it... say... when I was 14 ?Originally posted by: Harvey

You'll have to wait until I get the inverse timer system working. I also have some patent issues to resolve with Mr. Peabody and Sherman.Originally posted by: rh71
