how comes heating raw meat up in a microwave unsafe, but heating it up any other way is okay?
In: Biology
Microwaves don’t cook evenly. You can test this in-person by cooking a plate of cheese, actually. You’ll notice that some parts will melt before others. (the spinning feature most microwaves have is there to counteract this, but it isn’t a perfect solution) As a result of this highly uneven cooking, you can (and generally will) end up with a piece of meat that is hard and overcooked in some areas and nearly completely raw in others.
