i recently learned you’re not supposed to run a microwave with nothing in it/it can fry itself broken.
but i want to heat up a plate to help keep the pancakes i put on it warm like they do in diners. putting just a plate in my microwave causes it to start freaking out 'cause i guess there’s not enough stuff in there to absorb the energy(? this is what google tells me).
are the diners just putting the plates on a burner on low? that feels wrong.
Do you happen to know if most microwaves throw a fit when they’re run while empty/with nothing to heat, or if it just some of them? I feel like i should’ve known that little factoid by now.
I’ve never had that happen, but I suppose it’s possible.
