    That’s what you get for not using tableware that’s microwave compatible…Do you also complain that your cheap 100% aluminium frying pan doesn’t work on an induction stove?

        The problem is there are 2 categories. Microwave safe just means it won’t explode, or throw sparks. The other type sorely lacks a name still. It’s the stuff that is transparent to microwaves and so won’t heat up at all, except for heat transfer from the food.

        To be fair there’s some truth to it, they’re just an asshole.

        Some ceramic dishes tend to accumulate some water over time and then that water gets hot, while the food stays cold.
        That shouldn’t be a problem in new dishes or ones made out of glass or plastic
