So what really happens if you microwave a spoon?
More than likely nothing at all.
However, the answer could be very different if instead a CD
was placed in the microwave oven. Remember that metal reflects
microwaves. Indeed, this is why the walls of a microwave oven are made
of metal. So microwaving food in a metal bowl is not a good idea
because the microwaves will reflect off the container and not
reach the food, but it shouldn't cause a fire. Sparking happens when
metal is placed in a microwave oven that is very thin, or that has
sharp edges.
