They should've used lasagna. You could be in a tundra heating it over a fire and, as long as you get it sufficiently and consistently hot, it'll still burn your mouth 20minutes later.
- cromka 8mo agoI was recently wondering if any particular type of food contributes to mouth cancer prevalence and I concluded that at the top of that list would be be lasagna and cherry tomato on a pizza/in a soup.

- Loughla 8mo agoAnd yet, if you make it like I do, there always manages to be one piece that is ice cold while the rest is shockingly hot. Even if you're start with warm ingredients. Physics does not apply to lasagna. Also I suck at making lasagna.
- LoganDark 8mo agoI don't know how you cook your lasagna, but cooking for longer at a lower temperature usually results in more even heating than cooking for less long at a higher temperature. (This is one of the reasons microwaves are so terrible at heating evenly.) If you're not already, that may help. (I also imagine using the circulation in a convection oven might help as well. Also, preheating your oven! Even if it's a toaster oven.)
- esseph 8mo agoMicrowave tip: Use the power button to select a lower power level, and cook the food for longer.

- dataflow 8mo agoOnly works adequately if your microwave is the rarer kind that actually lowers the power (inverter), instead of just switching between 100% and 0% repeatedly.
- vel0city 8mo agoI don't have the fancier inverter style. Setting a power level still works pretty well even though flawed. Drawing out the overall cooking time still manages to get things more evenly heated in the end when you give the food time to distribute the heat throughout the food. Cooking food for 2 minutes at 50% power gives a noticeable difference in average temperature compared to cooking food for 1 minute at 100% power and waiting a minute. And I don't always know what it decides to do as far as turning the magnetron on and off on its sensor modes, but it'll spend a while doing automated reheat and potatoes and what not and it'll be dang near perfect every time. Don't get me wrong I'd love an inverter microwave, truly a better option. But its not like the duty cycle process has no impact.

- Joe_Cool 8mo agoTry Toast Hawaii. The weird mix of ham, pineapple and cheese the Germans make. I am still convinced the lava cheese insulator is there only to burn people's insides with boiling pineapple.
- moi2388 8mo agoBut that’s because of the water content of pineapple, so now we’re back at water.. Although pineapple flavoured floor heating does sound delicious.
- x______________ 7mo agoThanks for the recommendation, I will go out and try this, despite the belief that some people hold about Hawaii Toast giving you cancer[1]. 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toast_Hawaii https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toast_Hawaii
- mekdoonggi 8mo agoSometimes I wonder if the people trying to create a fusion reactor have ever made a baked potato, because I swear it's halfway there.
- sokka_h2otribe 8mo agoTo whatever degree you are serious, this can be a phase change thing. Cheese melting takes energy Cheese freezing, releases energy. So you do actually get the temperature to remain at the melting point of the cheese for a longer period of time if you have enough % cheese to be significant.
- BrtByte 8mo agoIt's actually the same physics: layers, trapped moisture, and phase changes holding onto heat way longer than you expect
