OLD Geezer who had a woman who was a gourmet cook, but did not want me in her way in kitchen, therefore I was at a loss when she passed because I could not pop corn without burning the oil Anything healthy yet good and simple I can boil water in micro for my instant coffee, And my micro is suprisingly intelligent!!!! If I place the measuring cup in with the handle facing me, it knows to stop in same position for easy removal I was wrong ALL Anchor Hocking is NOT micro safe Bowl shattered when trying to pop corn
