Wtf?  I do this all the time, I hope not.

Why would it be bad?  OR, Why would it be any worse than consuming anything else that's been microwaved?  Pretty much anything going into the microwave is going to be made up of some percentage of water...usually a decent percentage I'd imagine.

I'm not to familiarized with microwave risks and such but I hope you're wrong cause waiting for water to boil makes me fucking rage.  :crankey:

Why would you even think it's a bad idea? Microwaves work by heating the water in food, that's why wetter foods cook faster. There's nothing wrong with heating water.

the microwaves hurt the water-spirits and make them angry.

Microwaves operate by literally resonating and rotating H2O molecules suspended within food.  Temperature is a measurement of molecular motion.  So when microwaving food, this rotation translates into heat as the units of H2O bump and move the surrounding matter (try microwaving relatively dry food like oats and notice the dramatic lack of heating that goes on).
So heating/cooking food is essentially the same as warming up the cup of water.
Why were your concerned, what was the specific point of concern?

There can be an issue with superheating water in a "new" container free of scratches.  The water gets ultra hot without boiling, so when you disturb the container there's an explosion of steam (seriously dangerous).

i was under the impression there was something unhealthy about using microwaves in general for some reason.. i guess i'd never verified the truth of this understanding for sure though.. maybe i'm wrong?

They work by cooking the food with radiation. It's bad to stand in front of a microwave while it's cooking your food, even as fascinating as it may be when you're watching cheese or marshmallows melt.

In reality, they should be sold as 'Radiation ovens', not microwave ovens. Same difference, though. I will assume water is fine, as it's only water and shit, no nutrients or other things are present in water that could ruin it or alter it's chemistry into something possibly cancerous or not healthy.

For all the hype and controversy that surrounds electromagnetic radiation (microwaves and other sources), people often disregard the MASSIVE amounts of studies that have been done on them. 
The short of it: research strongly supports the theory that we're entirely safe (assuming you run your microwave with the door closed!).  The idea of microwave radiation lingering in your food is 100% bullshit.
The long of it: we don't know everything, as recent studies into cellphone use and brain activity has shown.

There is no danger in watching your food cook, you know that weird hole filled grid on the microwave door?  That stuff works because microwave radiation's wavelength is literally too big to fit through (no shit).  And if we're calling them "Radiation ovens," then we might as well call cellphones "Radiation Walkie Talkies," and radio stations, "Radiation Communication Hubs."  Radiation is everywhere, don't make it a bigger deal then it is.

Derp. They should be called 'microwave radiation ovens'.
And normal ovens should be sold as 'infra-red radiation ovens'.
Cooking things in a microwave radiation oven usuall takes 10 minutes tops.
An normal oven literally bombards your food with infra-red radiation, sometimes for hours. That can't be good for it, surely?
The only safe way to cook food is in natural hot springs.

Didnt read thread

but they did a study where they boiled water on a stove and in a microwave, and let it cool and watered plants with them

all the microwave watered plants died in a few days being on the same schedule at the stove water.

Also, honey loses ALL vitamins and nutrients within SECONDS of being microwaved.

It isnt BAD perse, but the lack of good makes it bad.

the part they neglected to mention was that when no one was looking, they also fucked around with the micro-watered plants to make them die.
It's know in the scientific community as "massaging data".

yeah but all the same a microwave is a controlled area of massive radiation.

With or without the study, I dont ever use my microwave.

Think about the japanese nuclear reactor shit. Now imagine that exposure to every meal for 30+ years of life... that's how most people live.

that's why most americans are obese/sick/depressed/schizophrenic/manic depressive/borderline suicidal/over anxiety/the list is bigger than the fucking bible.

You dont need scientific studies to tell you putting mass radiation in all your foods is NOT A GOOD IDEA.

I mean you already want to be eating food that was cooked as little as possible, but adding the microwave element just destroys any redeeming value of eating.

You'd be better off fasting for a few mor hours than eating ANYTHING from your microwave, honestly.

Wow, are you being serious?  Like seriously serious?  Do you really think a nuclear reactor and a microwave are in any way comparable?  Do you know anything about the variances in radiation (types, sources, wavelengths)? :facepalm:

Seeing as how science defines radiation, discovered radiation and is the primary field in which short-wavelength radiation is utilized, yes, I would put my stock in scientific studies surrounding it.  But then again I am one of those crazy science guys, trusting logic and whatnot. :facepalm:

How did you come to this conclusion?  What unbiased studies have you been reading?  I'm not usually such a sarcastic asshole, but I despise the spread of misinformation, and without quality research that's exactly what your doing.  Honestly, wiki radiation and take your time. :facepalm:

feelings man, feelings.
stop relying on facts, and knowledge, and listen to your feelings.
If you feel microwaved food is bad for you, then maybe it is bad for you.
ever think about that, hmmm? yeeeah...
peace out man.

You seems to be obsessed with microwaving food

You dont have to be a radiologist to realize microwaves are just bad.

Why dont you list all your sources as to why radiation for all your food is a good thing, and then we'll talk.

Fact is, any amount of radiation is bad. of course I was making some exaggerated claims, but still

it's radiation.

You have to be a retard to try and argue it ISNT bad.

Thats like, "Yeah well there's only a LITTLE cyanide in this."


I dont know why you insist on arguing for a much less healthy alternative to heating your food. Why the fuck would you defend using a microwave? Only real reason I can figure is you're too fucking lazy to use other methods of heating, and you NEED your fucking pizza pockets in 3 minutes and cant wait 30.

fucking slobs.

Also, this is retarded because you dicount everything with the assumption that they just fuck with the data at default.

Whatever fatasses, enjoy your fucking hot pockets

EDIT: Oh ok, I see what's happening here. Obviously some overweight lard ass as trying to defend his choice to microwave all his foods and just wants to blame his obesity on genetics or something. Eitherway I'm just going to ignore the fat fucks here who clearly have no idea how nutrition works. No point in argueing with a retard, they just bring you down and beat you from experience :lol:

and asking anyone to 'wiki' anytihng to inform themselves is the most misguided piece of advice you could possible bestow upon someone. Jesus fucking fuck

Radiation = bad.

There's no argueing it. But enjoy your hotpockets, fat boys

The radiation spectrum is usually broken down into electromagnetic radiation and ionizing radiation. The electromagnetic radiation is visible light and longer wave lengths like heat and radio. The bulk of the energy from the Sun is in this range. Since we use this light to see, grow plants, and to power solar cells, we can call this "good radiation". The second type, ionizing radiation, is "bad radiation" as it can damage equipment or humans.
