When I’m chewing something crunchy, like Captain Crunch why do the numbers on my microwave bounce?
In: Technology
The numbers on the microwave aren’t solidly lit, they blink really fast. They have a high enough refresh rate that you can’t tell under normal circumstances. When you chew something crunchy, the crunching is shaking your head and making that refresh rate more visible, so it leaves a sort of “trail” imprint on your vision.
