Canuck278 0 #1 September 19, 2003 Just opened mine to zap some cheddar smokies...and my god....there is a lot of exploded stuff in there! I need to clean it...but i'm not in a big hurry too...just how bad do you let it get before you clean it? I can hear the smokies exploding as i type this..more cheese .

freeflybella 0 #5 September 20, 2003 WOW this is the single most random thread I can remember reading! Good for you! I haven't really felt like a post-whore until just now! BTW, cover all of your food. If you let it get too dirty it will stink up whatever you try to nuke later. (This is however a very effective way of adding 'smoke-flavoring' to your lentils!)

freakyflygirl 0 #6 September 20, 2003 Kids tried making home made chalk again in the microwave....blue baking soda glued to pretty much everything A little tip to get off those REALLY cooked on food.....Stick a bowl of water in the microwave and heat for 5 minutes. Take it out and everything wipes right off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, and if you add a drop or two of vanilla to the water, it makes it even better.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeNReN 0 #11 September 20, 2003 A quick wipe with battery acid before using a pressure washer also helps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MC208B 0 #14 September 20, 2003 Damn, I hate it when those Johnsonville Brats explode in there! I usually take a single edge razorblade and scrape all that shit out. I do this 4 times a year at the day the seasons change Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monkey1031 0 #15 September 20, 2003 the only difference between my microwave & a brand new one in a box is that mine is used, and the new one is in a box... they are both as clean as the other. I might even go so far as to say, mine is cleaner than one that comes out of the box. i have a phobia of sorts about germs. i'm not at "howard hughes" (i.e. Defcon 5) but it's close... smd7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
