There's a very good chance you might have been using your microwave wrong.
A homeowner has shared a handy tip on TikTok suggesting a common error could be leading us to cook our food unevenly, reports Birmingham Live.
TikTok user Isabella Avila has revealed all in a video that has subsequently gone viral.
The 22-year-old asked viewers: "You know when you reheat food in the microwave and some parts of it are hot enough to burn your mouth and the other part of it is frozen?"
She suggests this is all to do with where we are placing the dish. If it is in the middle, then it's wrong.
Isabella said: "It should be on the edge so it can actually rotate round and cook evenly."
And she then added: "If you want to cook more than one thing at once just put a mug in here (the microwave) for some height distribution."
In the comments, people were gobsmacked - with one saying: "Thanks for letting me know."
"Game changer," agreed a second.
