Now, boys.....

I'm sure that must be some dish that each of us makes that most or some
other people wouldn't like.

Just because I say I don't like something prepared a certain way does not
imply criticism of the person who made it. It's a matter of preference.

And yet again, there's that desperate LOL, the phony laugh that falls flat

My first microwave was also a Sharp Carousel microwave/convection
combination. I bought it in 1987 and it's still going strong. (And yes, the
"mix" modes do an excellent job on poultry!)

As Barbara Kafka points out, the microwave isn't really suitable for breads
or muffins. But it excels at making steamed puddings (which come out like
very moist cakes) and those Asian steamed buns.

I totally agree. My primary objection with cakes, breads, or muffins, is
that there is no browning or true crust.
