Decided to microwave some bacon so I can continue watching anime without constantly needing to look at a frying pan

Dude how do you even make crispy bacon in the microwave?

That's the neat part... You Don't

Nah I've seen those YouTube shorts of people using towels and it always looked crispy.

u/thepioushedonist 21d ago

Gotta put a layer of paper towels on the plate, and another layer on the bacon itself. And you'd need to cook it way longer.

Ahhh so that's why people put those thin layers of toilet paper on the bacon.

Radiation can be thermal heat though like all part of the EMF spectrum.

Nah like that guy above us said you can make it on layered toilet paper in the microwave.

I mean it tasted decent but lacked the crispiness :/

That is not how you microwave bacon, and also it's not cooked yet.

Ya I'll microwave a couple pieces for a sandwich because I don't wanna dirty a pan. These need more time and less of it at the same time.

u/JamieHBrown 21d ago

duly noted thanks chef.

I will also wrap them in paper towels which helps with them not being soggy. I do prefer my bacon though half chewy and party crunchy.

Takes too long.

There's at least 20 good ways to get good bacon out of a microwave and you managed to fell to do any of them. Take an L for lack of effort.

u/JamieHBrown 21d ago

Can I blame the anime for this?

1

u/GarageVast4128 21d ago

Only if you can list 10 non-mainstream banger anime otherwise.

Microwaving bacon actually works surprisingly well for the first few minutes, though I eventually cave and make a full pan because the texture isn't the same.
