Microwave
I know this is long but read it out. It’s pretty fascinating.
I received an email from a friend this morning. Usually I would dismiss this kind of email as urban myth nonsense but read the article and then read my comments at the end.

A convection oven is even better, as it cooks faster and more evenly and browns beautifully, too. (Convection ovens are inexpensive, and have a fan that distributes the heat more evenly. Almost as fast as a microwave, and lots safer!)
OK this is me again.
Normally I don’t give much credence to these kind of “scientific” findings but coincidentally I read an article a few weeks ago about American obesity that addressed microwave ovens.
The subject of the article was how drastically American obesity has increased since the late 70’s and early 80’s which was also about the time that microwaves were becoming really popular.
The conclusion of the article was that since microwaving had made cooking so much faster and easier we were overeating.
The interesting thing in the email below is this:
“I have known for years that the problem with microwaved
anything is not the radiation people used to worry about, It’s
how it corrupts the DNA in the food so the body can not
recognize it. So the body wraps it in fat cells to protect itself
from the dead food or it eliminates it fast.”
Pretty scary stuff.
Also, during this same period of time cancer rates have gone through the roof, Autism is at historic highs as are many other conditions and diseases.
Now many of these may just be a coincidence or attributable to other factors but it makes you think.
