| My microwave has gotten really dirty, due to a mishap with a bowl of chili. Anybody got any good tips for cleaning it? |

| Fill a bowl with water, microwave it for about 15 minutes on high. The steam will loosten the chili and you can wipe it away with paper towels. |

| Be careful when heating plain water in the microwave. Superheating can occur. http://www.animations.physics.unsw.edu.au/jw/superheating.htm |

| Yes, do be careful . Use a glass or microwave safe bowl, fill it less than halfway and be careful of steam when opening the door. Wait a minute or two before you start wiping it with paper towels. The steam will not disappear if ypu wait a bit, gives it time to loosen the chili gunk. |
