For displaced, misplaced, and nostalgic ex-Bronxites

But once people started using microwaves for cooking, it became a hazard because its harmful chemicals could leach into the food. Back in the 50s, no one knew or cared much about carcinogenics. Many of us learned the hard way. Have a Happy Thanksgiving but don't cook in that melmac bowl! Reference ID: BX93193 Responses: Re: Artifact of Bronx Past Bxgourmet 11/22/2025 (0)
