*Without being mean*, what would you think if you found out your boyfriend didn't know you don't cook raw meat by putting it in the microwave?

@Northwest Hmm. Microwaves shouldn't be used to cook raw meat. That's just not right to me.

@Northwest I still don't think I made myself clear as to why I asked this question. My point was he doesn't know how to cook bacon. No wonder he cares so much his woman knowing how to cook. I don't know if he'll ever be with a woman who doesn't cook regularly.

@SomeMichGuy I didn't know that about HP. Interesting I never heard of that either. I did research it and someone made a video of cooking it in the microwave. Looked terrible... which is the reason for my concern that he will always be 100% dependent on a woman to cook for him daily... His mom shouldn't have spoiled him.

Reliably... lol.


You seem to be focused on the fact I said [i]can't[/i] cook in the microwave. The fact is his way of "cooking" bacon is in a microwave! He said, it didn't cook right and refused to eat it. But, my point is he doesn't know how to even use a skillet and stovetop to cook bacon. He even tried throwing it in the oven for 15 minutes, and it still didn't cook, he said. He could have cooked it in a skillet and been done with it.

Most people do not use microwaves to cook food. And, he obviously doesn't even do that!

@SomeMichGuy Yeah. I understand that.

As I said in my post earlier today, I looked up people actually using a microwave to cook bacon. Yuck. As my boyfriend said, it didn't turn out for him. The bacon in the videos I saw didn't look appetizing in the least. My boyfriend agrees with this or he could easily use a microwave to cook food. He does not.


The reason I laughed at reliably is because I was thinking about all the misinformation I get on Google now vs some years back. Finding out people actually use a microwave to cook raw meat doesn't change my opinion on it or my initial concern. It doesn't produce good results, and he wants a woman who cooks regularly... and a woman who doesn't use a microwave to cook as he'd find that unacceptable! Lol!

@perceptivei Well, the internet had better information when sites actually HAD information (e.g., large FTP directories).

But the social media explosion has created a huge amount of noise. If idiots all believe, link to, endorse something not true, it destroys the usefulness of the Page Rank algorithm.
