Mike nailed one.
Off to the Myth factory scrap yard.
The nuke box did used to cook your eyes a little if you stared at the food,
but no more with better shielding.
So did staring at myths on the internet using an old CRT monitor...staring
down the barrel of an electron gun.
A solar oven is all about concentrated radiation.
So, still living in a ocean of radiation.
and
Still prefer a good ole burnt carcinogen burger soaking up smoke and wood
resins.

I am an old electronics engineer. I have worked on high power microwave and
communications equipment all my life. I used to stick my hand full of neon
bulbs into the radiator feed to check the power output and look for birds
nests in the waveguide. My hands are still attached and have not turned
green.
There is nothing truthful in the claims that microwaves can cause harmful
changes to food. This is purely fear-mongering. It has no basis in fact.
The only thing the microwaves can do is cause the water molecules to rotate
and rub against each other. It is the same as rubbing your hands to warm
them in the winter.
Of course the heat will cause changes in the DNA. So does cooking on a
stove. This does not matter. The things you do to food to digest it are far
more severe than heating the water content in a microwave. The hydrochloric
acid and pepsin in your stomach will start the breakdown process that
removes the proteins and breaks them down so they can be digested and
utilized in the body.
Cooking in the microwave is much safer than pan frying or grilling over an
open flame. There are no heterocyclic amines or polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons that form. See
http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/Risk/cooked-meats for more
information.
Of course, you knew that already, didn't you.
Thanks,
