Got Science?

Almost forgot! Did you know there's an expiration date on toothpaste?

Okay, the last question box: Can you bake a pie in a microwave? Apparently, yes. I yahooed it, and here are some results:

North pole Recipes (for pecan pie in the microwave): For some reason, I find "352 days until Christmas!" slightly amusing. Why bother count?

Metal and Pie in Microwaves: Thanks to iluvmusic! This website is all about using metal in the microwave and how it is safe when done correctly- and it does mention pie. Apparently, though, you have to use metal utensils and pots that are definately safe for the microwave because certain shapes and sizes and other factors will cause the metal thing not to work right. Also, don't stick any metal thing with a black plastic handle made of phenolic, because the handle will explode (there goes using our pots). Anyway, I'm not going to try- we once accidently put a little foil in the microwave and there were sparks and, well, scary stuff. We took it out immediately and I've been spooked ever since.


Kudos to smile4evah for having actually baked a pie in a microwave!

I actually thought of this question a loooonnng time ago, and my friend and I had an extremely... amusing conversation consisting of conducting experiments with pies and microwaves far away from civilization (in case it explodes). Well, that's it!
