Maybe microwaving isn't so badPosted Jul 9th 2007 12:01PM by Sarah J. GimFiled under: MicrowavingYou know how we, in all our food snobby ways, always snicker a little when we hear about those poor, ignorant people who think using the microwave oven is "cooking?"Well, using the microwave might not actually be so bad.According to "green" experts and The Green Book authors Thomas Kostigen and Elizabeth Rogers, microwaves are more than 4x more energy efficient than traditional ovens! If everyone in North America cooked exclusively with a microwave for a year, we could use the saved energy to light up the entire continent of Africa for a year (not that Africa needs lighting, but you know what I mean). Keeping your microwave clean helps maximize its energy.
