GREAT EGGS-PECTATIONS
Microwaving eggs in their shells can often have explosive consequences. That is because your microwave heats the egg at a very rapid rate and the steam cannot be expelled fast enough. As a result, the pressure inside the shell builds and the egg becomes more likely to explode. This is not only messy, but rather dangerous — in the past, exploding eggs have led to severe eye trauma and facial injuries.
