usually top rack safe means that you can put it in the microwave but only up until boiling point at which time it may melt - so no more than 8 mins.

It's probably plastic and is only top rack dishwasher safe, bottom rack would melt it. Meaning it's microwavability is suspect.

forgive my ignorance, but isn't EZ Mac a microwavable product? what does it have to do with a dishwasher?

*edit* I see....I thought that stuff came in a disposable plastic tub. Apparently not.

there are a number of materials that should not be subjected to microwaves. if you're only concerned about the heat, then it's probably okay to put in the microwave, as long as it's not subjected to sustained high heat from the food inside.
