The internet doesn’t help.
Wtf is that?
It feels plasticky and hard. But I don’t think it’s happy to see me since it’s broken in half and I probably did it when cleaning it.
If you help me figure out what it is, I will clean my microweave in return.
Edit: It’s a Mica cover. TIL.

I always cover my food so the microwave never gets dirty enough that a damp rag can’t wipe it up the odd small spill easily. Are people just raw-dogging their microwaves and letting it all cake on in successive rounds of use? There’s always these life hacks to cleaning them but it’s not hard to clean if it doesn’t get dirty in the first place.
I genuinely never cover the food. Doesn’t that make the food heat up slower?
We just clean it once in a while. If the food can pop (like meats and such) we cover those.
No, it makes it cook quicker and prevents it drying out.
I usually cover the food, but sometimes it boils over.
I’d almost never use the microwave for myself, but I’ve got three kids and I’m always in a hurry. If something does spill over I’ll give it a quick wipe, but it builds up. Plus if I’m steaming vegetables in there, there’s a residue even if it is covered.
