I think that they are probably made of a good conducting material and they basically work the opposite of an insulator. That would be my guess anyway.

Here's my answer.



Let's you thaw and cook at the same time.

I put a frozen chicken in the sink late last nite to thaw. Inlaws love my weber rotisserie chicken. Cut open the bag this morning, and was hit by a smell. Didn't smell bad, but it didn't smell good either. Whole chickens are only a couple a bucks at Staters right now so I tossed it.

Better safe than sorry right?(We don't need sick inlaws)

Fin,

You're a good son-in-law. Some in-laws would not be so lucky...

Default The Microwave to Defrost

Because of my busy schedule and lack of planning, I almost entirely use the microwave to defrost meat and fish and then immediately cook them. So far, I have experienced no illness, just tasty food. I found that if I use the refrigerator to defrost, something comes up in my schedule, and the meat I refrigerated ends up sitting there for a few days -- which results in me throwning that expensive cut away -- thus -- the microwave.
