How Does a Microwave Heat Food So Fast?

You put cold pizza into the microwave. You press a button. Thirty seconds later it’s hot.

But the plate is sometimes still cool. And the middle of the food can still be cold.

So what is the microwave actually doing in there?

No fire. No heater. Just that humming sound and the spinning plate.

Something invisible is happening inside the food…and once you see it, the microwave suddenly makes a lot more sense.
