However, there is never a shortage of crankery from Mike Adams who asserts Microwave ovens destroy the nutritional value of your food. There may be too much idiocy here to address but let's get started.

I never use mine for cooking, simply because it doesn't taste as good. I do tend to make enough of a meal to supply ample leftovers, so I regularly use it for reheating. That and making popcorn.
I also use it for defrosting food before cooking.
Nevertheless, yeah... people who think nuking is any less healthy are dumb.

Get a microwave with a browner, and that dont happen.
Each year when we discuss nuclear chemistry one of the first questions I get is "do microwaves make food radioactive?" So I can vouch for there being a lot of misconceptions out there about how they work. Sometimes I just say yes and keep going without missing a step.
But I don't use them that often either, maybe microwave a bag of popcorn once every 3 months or so. The thing I hate most about microwaving frozen food is the all-too-common microwaved food that is hotter than the Sun on the outside and still frozen solid on the inside. Nothing better than biting into ice crystals at the center of a microwaved burrito that is almost too hot to touch. hehe.

You gotta put the burrito on the outside of the plate so it's not in the center which doesnt get as much power.
