I remember Ann Reardon addressing this "hack" in a video. She sacrificed a microwave to teach us it can't work and to never do it.

Actually, this will very often end in explosion and severe burns! Never microwave an egg!

Never microwave an egg in its shell. Otherwise it can be cooked easily and quickly in a microwave. Crack, beat and microwave uncovered for approximately 2 mins for a two egg sandwich.

Why the hell would you not break it?!?! THAT'S why it exploded!!! You can scramble an egg in a microwave IF YOU BREAK IT INTO A MUG.

Yup, I always used to make "scrambled" eggs like that in the microwave by breaking them... when I was a kid. How do these adults not know better?? 😂 (assuming they are adults)

Yeah, you've got to crack it or the pressure will make it go boom like in the picture.

So, no coffee and eggs at the same time? ✔️ I just got my 1st microwave oven (2nd hand, so no instructions), and you're waaaaay ahead of me on how it works. So far, it just looks nice in my kitchen.

If you were alive when microwaves first came out, you couldn't have missed the warnings about cooking eggs in the shell.

I once boiled 5 eggs in the microwave had no problems but when I realized I was short on the eggs needed tried to boil just 1 and it sounded like a shotgun went off in my microwave and made one hell of a mess

You have to take it out of the shell and add a tablespoon of water per egg or it will explode.

Actually, it's not that hard. You can make a boiled egg in the microwave, just make sure you put a little hole in the shell at the top

I tried this and was watching it expecting to stop it before the explosion, but I wasn't fast enough. Ended up with a huge goose egg on my forehead and a major egg mesh inside the microwave. Lol

One, you didn't break the egg into the mug. Two, scramble egg in mug and add stuff if you want. Three, microwave on high for one minute or so while KEEPING AN EYE ON IT! Boom! Tasty breakfast!

You aren't supposed to put an entire egg in the microwave.I just can't imagine how this was supposed to work.

Just poke a couple of holes in the white and yolk. Cook for ,say, 30 seconds then have a look. Another 10 seconds if it needs it. I do 2 eggs for 45 seconds.

Microwaves do not "cook" and nothing that comes out of one should be considered "food"

You can't tell from the putside if a potato is rotten in the middle. But the rotten part can be cut out.

I've had this happen. Try turning the berries into a coulis before adding them, or blending and straining out any seeds/stems. Add the milk first, and add in fruit bit by bit. Too much fruit at first just gums up the blades and fails from the get go. Now, if this happens again, mix in the milk, and freeze 😁 Flake it up with a fork every so often (15-20 mins?), and make yourself a nice treat!

wait, did you get a B- for not eating this right or cooking this wrong? this makes no sense and your teacher needs a C- for not being clearer.
