It might, if you don't have Michigan-style power outages (I think that's what did for the first one?) 50 years though! I remember our family getting its first microwave when I was at least 10, and I'm not 50 yet

We need a new toaster. I'm thinking about it.

I recommend you read the reviews first. They're not very inspiring.

Yep, I clearly remember when my folks brought home my recently deceased microwave when I was 10. We thought we were the Jetsons!

Actually, they belong to a cult (Old Apostolic Lutheran Church) that has infested the area. One of their beliefs is that women should have as many children as their bodies will tolerate.

Read a few pages of the link above to find out how weird/awful they are. The forced childbearing is just a very small part of it; wait till you get to the discussion of how/why they tolerate child molestation within their membership. :eyebrow:

New Microwave Update
 
OMG. I'm so stoked about this microwave!

Yesterday, I decided to make some spaghetti and needed to thaw a pound of hot Italian sausage meat (I use sausage instead of hamburger meat - it's so delicious). I hit the Turbo Defrost button and input the weight of the meat, and holy fuck.

The entire brick of meat was thawed in roughly three minutes. :eek: And that was less time than the microwave wanted to take, because I stopped the process early to check on the meat and it was already completely thawed. Next time I have a pound of meat to thaw, I'll tell the machine that it weighs less.

Similarly, every other heating/cooking option is super fast. It's going to take me awhile to get used to how quickly this thing does its job, but I couldn't be happier with the defrost option. WOW.

I do that! Sometimes I use brat-style Italian sausages.

I just cut it out of the casing.

They're not all bad, at least they practice early sex education for kids. :facepalm:

I always remove the casing, from any kind of sausages.

One of the local grocery stores carries ground pork sausage in a 1 lb chunk (just like hamburger meat) - no casings to fiddle with. :thumb:
