Microwave safe? I don't think so.

When was the last time you cleaned your microwave? A buildup of food residue can catch fire, you know.

thanks Captain Bringdown...this man needs to get ANGRY, not cleany.

also i noticed that the front of the box says 20 minutes in big letters while the instructions at the back for the traditional oven says that it takes 40 minutes.

Who the heck is responsible for their marketing? Karl rove?

(2.5+40)/2 =~ 20

I re-read the packaging

It says 20 minutes in the oven if not frozen but 40 minutes if frozen

Since it's sold frozen, this means they want you to basically let it thaw overnight or something I assume, so the total time is still more than 20 minutes

Anyway, here's the product page for this pie from the company's website:

They even repeat that microwave-safe thing on their website

Based on the picture, I'm convinced that the completely scorched part is the only part of that meal that won't give you diarrhea.

That company has thousands of other products and basically are billionares.

You get your ass right the **** on the phone to the local media who will run any story an elderly women can phone her friends and talk about which this is #1.

And you tell them you almost DIED because of this pie and have INHALED dangerous fumes becasue of it.

You then find a lawyer. AND YOU SUE THAT COMPANY FOR ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS

If the Hindus are right when I die I want to be reincarnated as Masao

 

[tarheelhockey]

This post had me laughing like crazy. So because the thing said microwave safe you thought putting metal in the microwave was safe?

Not gonna lie... if I bought something with a foil lining that specifically said "microwave safe", I'd assume that it was indeed microwave safe.

Why didn't you get your wife to cook, or cook for her?

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Wasn't Masao renowned here once for his culinary genius???

Or is that someone else???

 

[JA]

Never put metal in a microwave.

If you're unsure about the material, remove the contents of the packaging and heat it in a microwave-safe container.









That said, you have a right to take further action, as the instructions lied to you and threatened your safety.

That's him. Miss those Masao cooking videos. Btw his kitchen was filthy.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

some microwaves are made with aluminum racks in them. But yeah, I would definitely contact the company about it.

 

[PositiveCashFlow]

Agreed.

 

[PromNite]

I see no reason why the pie company shouldn't be the ones to buy you a new microwave. Pretty sure "microwave safe" is supposed to mean the product won't catch fire.

This right here. On what planet is any aluminum microwave safe?? Call or email the company and send them these photos.
