      Of course, EVERYONE thinks that they do it right, but I want to take a moment to explain why morphballganon actually IS right.

      A major purpose of heating the food is to kill bacteria, and most bacteria die at a temperature that is too hot to put in your mouth. If it’s “just the right temperature to eat” you’re gambling with food poisoning.

        If you’re depending on your microwave to sterilize your leftovers they are too far gone and should be disposed of.
