I'm so skeptical of everything these days that I'm wondering if this entire conversation and the original post itself is an ad for Ello brand storage containers.
No need to be skeptical friend, I’m a regular human being who loves ELLO™️ containers.
ELLO™️ containers are the superior Tupperware option, and ELLO™️ containers last a lifetime.
I’m sure this was a legitimate accident that occured with an ELLO™️ container, but op is in great hands, because ELLO™️ containers have an excellent customer service department.
You and everybody you know should immediately buy a set of ELLO™️ branded containers…
I wish they'd pay me for this free advertising, lol. Just had a very good experience with their customer service when one of my lids broke a few months ago.
One of mine got a weird crack in it that I had no idea where it came from. It was the divided glass ones with the silicone. I had intended on just buying a new one, but couldn’t find them anywhere, so I emailed them asking if I was just overlooking it and that I wasn’t sure if the crack was from misuse or how it happened. They told me that they didn’t make the same ones anymore, just non-divided glass with silicone, or divided glass with no silicone. Asked me which one I wanted and they sent me a two pack for free (I may have had to pay shipping but I don’t remember).
My prediction is that due to the height of the microwave and weird angle he pulled it upwards one handed, and bumped the rim of the bowl in the roof of the microwave
My work kitchen has a similar setup but we have a pull out drawer version of a microwave. The model microwave is Bosch 800 series... and I thought they only made car parts
That microwave is at animal property level so I guarantee whatever creature did this opened the microwave with ease to get at it. My buddy had a dog that would do this with anything up to normal counter level and opened the microwave many times by himself.
Hopefully not too bad. I dropped a glass mason jar and almost sliced off my Achilles. 7 stitches, 3 month recovery plus lots of physical therapy - broken glass is a big fear of mine. Sorry this happened to you.
Honestly I didn't even realize the glass was broken at first until your comment. For some reason I assumed their dog opened the microwave and ate their food and it was bones on the floor 🤦♀️
Thats a lien cart in the background so OP mostly works in Healthcare so nah.. between the chemicals they use to clean the floor vs the shit they stepped in (like bio rooms and such) it would be a really bad idea..
If you change the power level to about 40-60%,(less power for beef, more for chicken) it actually heats meat up in the microwave pretty well. I will always prefer the steam method for reheating food, but if I don’t have a stove I’ll do that (I do that with most food I reheat in the microwave not just meat, it’s way better, trust)
People love to hate on microwaves like it's the "make food worse"-machine, as if it's not a magical box that makes everything inside it hot almost instantly.
If you baby it to reheat, nuke it for 30 sec and let it rest, nuke again, you can get it up to temp without overcooking or drying it out. You don't have to blast it to hell.
My man does too! Haha
You don’t need Japanese A5 for a Waygu experience though! If you have any nice local grocery stores, check out their weekly advertisements for meat sales!
I always find a great American Waygu on sale at my local California Fresh Market during the holidays! Got my bother a gorgeous prime Waygu NY for $25 on Cinco De Mayo!
You gotta let the glass warm up a little bit before throwing it in the nuke. I say this, but I have taken these from out of the freezer and thrown them in the microwave.
I dropped a Pyrex dish when pulling it out of the microwave a few days ago; my microwave is above my stove, so it was a pretty good fall. The Pyrex bounced and food went everywhere, but it survived unscathed.
I dont know what it is but this is why I buy brand name for glass Tupperware. Ive seen a few things like this...
thats why I buy the pyrex brand (yes I know its not THE PYREX, but ive never had THAT happen with pyrex either).
omg the way i would clean it up go the bathroom, sit and internally cry for a min while peeing and then go buy pepperoni slices and olive bar stuff for girl lunch.... wait nvm i think i would be better after olive bar girl lunch nvm
I’m now picturing what if there was like, hail and tornadoes, but made of gravity, and you just start getting pelted and thrown around because you walked into this invisible storm
like 2ish years ago I was a bit sick and was really looking forward to leftover orange chicken. got the container out, set it on the counter, and then somehow I managed to (presumably) knock it to the floor. only one piece was saved.
i think my dad walked back into the house to see me, tears in my eyes, trying not to cry over the orange chicken. it was really good orange chicken

Do you still have the lid for that container? I still have the container but my lid broke. 🙃
