5 LIFE HACKS BASED ON SCIENCE

I don't know about lame, but the next time you go to microwave something, don't put it directly in the center of the rotating dish inside the microwave. The cold spots in microwaves are caused by an interference pattern in the wave field inside the microwave. If you put the food directly in the center, it may spend more time in a "dead zone" of the interference pattern.  It is best to maximize the distance that the food travels inside the microwave. Therefore, you should put it as far towards the edge of the spinning disk as possible. Check out The Engineer Guy's video on how a microwave works if you don't believe me.
