Food, Pizza and Health: Hangry time

Hangry time

By ohforcheese - 19/01/2012 20:19 - United States

Today, I learned that when microwaveable pizzas say, "Caution, hot after cooking" what they really mean is that you should be prepared for the cardboard tray to fall apart when you try to pick it up and that boiling hot cheese is going to run down your arm. FML

Today, in a rush, I attempted to microwave leftover pizza slices. Unbeknownst to me, I accidentally hit the 'defrost' button, turning the pizza into a lukewarm soggy mess. I guess pizza should never be reheated in 'thaw mode'. FML

Today, I made myself a hot pocket for lunch. I managed to scald myself on the red-hot cheese, and at the same time bite into the center, which was somehow still frozen solid. FML

Today, I learned that just because the actual part of the pan that does touch the stove isn't hot doesn't mean that the handle won't give you third degree burns, a broken nose from passing out from the pain, and an expensive trip to the emergency room. FML

Today, as I was texting a friend, I was going to warm up some cold pizza. As I got finished with a text I put the pizza in the microwave and set the timer. After the timer ran out, I opened the door and smelled burnt plastic. Turns out phones aren't meant to be in the microwave. FML

Today, I noticed something written on the top of my toaster, so I used a finger to clear away some of the crumbs, burning my finger in the process. The writing? "CAUTION: Hot surface!" Thanks, toaster. FML

Today, while house sitting, I went to take my pizza out of the oven, not realizing that the oven mitt had a hole in it. FML

Today, I got burned, all because the toaster scared me while I was holding a pot of boiling water. FML

Kitchen nightmares

Today, I accepted I can't cook at all. Why? I burned myself cooking popcorn in a microwave oven. I accidentally burst the package open and a scorching kernel flew into my bra. FML

Today, my kitchen is trying to kill me. So far, I've hit my head three times on cupboards that opened themselves, cut open my hand on the microwave door when it slammed shut, and burned my cheek with the "heat-proof" oven mitt when I pushed the hair off my face. FML

Today, after placing it on top of the stove, my hot tray of freshly-baked cookies slipped. I caught it, though. With my bare hand. FML

Why was the cardboard still under the pizza ? That's kind of a dumb move to put that in the microwave.

Scratch that, cheese for no one! Which is just as much a celebration really if you don't like cheese. Don't worry, Skooma. I got the Sheogorath reference!

Juicebox? O.o Hmm...so I have a thin tube protruding from my body that people drink from? No wonder I keep hearing slurping sounds then I faint. It all makes sense now.

They do have microwaveable pizzas that you can just keep on the cardboard while cooking... Wouldn't recommend it, but thats the idea that company had, I take it.

39, calm down..if there's cardboard with microwaveable pizza, you're usually supposed to take the cardboard out before microwaving the pizza, so stop having a cow.

It's perfectly fine to microwave cardboard...

Spottedfeather 7

Friday 20 January 2012 21:43

No, it's not. Especially if you have something oily on top of it. The oil will soak into the cardboard, making it really flimsy and not easy to handle. I don't know why people use common sense before cooking.
