You may think that microwaving one grape is no big deal, but if it is two grapes put together, it is completely different. Someone on the Internet has done experiments, and the results are surprising, sparks have come out of the grape contact area, and it may even burn out the microwave oven.
Why is this happening? When two grapes are next to each other, a high-temperature plasma forms between them. Plasma sounds sci-fi, but it's a hot gas made up of ions and free electrons. The sun is filled with plasma, as are lightning and auroras on Earth. The microwaves in the microwave oven create a powerful electric field between the grapes, and the energy is concentrated to the extreme to produce plasma.
And it's not just grapes, anything the size of grapes with salt and water is at risk, such as quail eggs and large blueberries, which can cause plasma in the microwave. It turns out that the microwave heating is uneven, there are always some particularly hot places, and the shape of two grapes and the microwave frequency of the microwave oven can create a super hot spot. Microwaves generate stronger and stronger electromagnetic fields between the grapes** and finally plasma at the point of contact.
So keep in mind that the microwave oven is not a panacea, and you must be careful when using it, and do not try to heat two grapes or anything that may produce plasma. Safety comes first, and scientific exploration should also be carried out under the premise of safety.
