Nope. Never saw the point. If I reheat stuff, the oven does the job, and I don’t buy pre-made stuff that goes in the microwave either so yeah.

No I just prefer to make my own food from scratch. Microwaves are icky.

You can use microwaves for cooking, too! And they're so simple and convenient. Don't be a snob.
I’m not being a snob for expressing a preference. You’re being very rude.
I think it's pretty impressive you have the patience to cook every night. I love cooking, but come home from work so tired a lot that all I want to do is nuke something and curl up with a book.
You get used to it
I don't actually have microwave meals that often, but I admit microwaves are super useful for reheating food. Hell I even use them for baking. Heating butter and chocolate together in a bowl is so much easier using a microwave on short blasts than waiting so much longer on a hob to heat it.
I'm not sure what you meant by icky, though Fynn. What's icky about using a microwave?
Nothing, Fynn is just larping that it isn't strange not to own a microwave in 2018. If nothing else just for reheating some meals. Although I will admit, depending on what you're reheating the oven can do a better job.
But I don't always have 30 mins to preheat / cook my leftover pizza at 2:30 in the morning.
I have never had a situation in my life where I thought to myself “damn I really wish I had a microwave right now”
Like cool, of course stuff is for everyone. But I don’t think I’m particularly old fashioned for not having a microwave. I just never had the need for one in any capacity whatsoever. Nor am I criticizing anyone for having one. And I’m still a bit salty for being called a snob for that :mad2:
You guys are complete dicks. And that’s downright sadistic of you, Psy. You know I can’t even afford a baby bed for my baby.
I'm sorry Fynn :(
Besides, that's not even snobby. Not really. Snobby is owning an aga.
I never owned a microwave for the longest time ever when I lived alone either. Those meals are trout and though my wife has one now, I prefer using a toaster oven or a stove top to cook and reheat things too. I just use the microwave if I’m in a hurry now.
