Hot dogs are already cooked, so they don't count. Microwave
cooking a hamburger is an awful thing to do, but there are so many
folks here who have such low standards that it wouldn't surprise
me a bit if several of you find it an acceptable practice. I have
not eaten a "hot dog" any way but cold out of the package as
emergency food in at least a decade, and I have never microwaved a
hamburger patty.

thank god your high standards don't prevent you from eating hot dogs
cold directly from the package.

Did you see the word, "emergency, above?"


what, the house is on fire and you don't have time to heat a hot dog?

Maybe the power is off?

[story mode on]

It was a dark and stormy night. My wife and new baby were in the
hospital. My son and I were home alone. Lightning hit the nearby power
pole. The power went off. My son wanted hot chocolate, but obviously,
with no power, I couldn't make it in the microwave. I took him in the
kitchen, lit the gas burner with a match and made him some hot
chocolate. You could have knocked him over with a feather. I was a god.

[end of story]

I still have a gas stove, 30 years later. I could heat the hot dog, and
even toast the bun.

god, i wish i still had a gas stove.
