honestly, i had a slight panic attack because we tend to use it quite frequently, especially having a 2 year old who sometimes needs to eat on demand. i always buy frozen veggies that can be steamed in the microwave in three-four minutes, and heating up leftovers seems to be a must for a microwave.
....and then the thought occurred. i don't need a microwave, i just like the simplicity of using it.
when i worked for juut we didn't have a microwave in our break area. almost everyone hated it, including myself. when you have a 30-45 minute break and 15-30 other people on break at the same time (sometimes)... you want your food done quickly. david wagner (our head boss and founder of juut), was dead against using microwaves because of the radiation it causes. he is a "health freak" and lives an extremely healthy lifestyle not only in his salons but also in his homes.
i did a little research on microwaves and the effects that microwaves have, and wow, i was astonished. i'm not here to tell you not to use a microwave, i'm sure eventually we'll get another one, but for now i'm going to keep on my "no microwave" plan. and try a little bit harder to keep a little bit of radiation away.. it's really not that hard, just takes a little bit more time. :)
even dan has said "it can't be good for you if it cooks something in three minutes instead of in the stove/oven for 20-30 minutes"....... well said dan!
