No, for that I use my hot dog.


Wimp! ;-)

My (then very young) wife brought one of those hotdog cookers home one
afternoon and fired it up with a big smile on her face, and then placing
the well electrocuted frankfurter in a bun, took a bite..chewed and then
spit it out, proclaiming the hotdogs had gone bad. She then went and got
another package from the store and repeated the test. Second batch
tasted as foul as the first. She took it back and the next day...we
bought a microwave. Our very first and a fairly new item on the market.
Pricey *******s too, at the time.


The most I've ever paid for a microwave was $2. It had a bad door
switch that was replaced with one from my salvaged stock. A few months
later the HV cap went bad and was replaced with a good used part. It is
the only one I ever bought, and I've used them for 28 years. The first
was a huge stainless steel Amana RADAR Range that was built for
commercial use. It needed a 20A circuit, and was big enough for thrre
liberal to dry their hair at the same time.


We were at a yard sale with a frank zapper on the table, still in the
box and I held it up for her..she instantly crinkled up her nose and
instantly and loudly said..YUCK!!! 30 yrs later..the memory stuck.


Some people just don't like high iron hotdogs. ;-)
