                                According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), microwave ovens are safe for cooking when used correctly. But does that mean it is okay to eat microwavable food, particularly pre-packaged meals, on a regular basis? While the microwave itself is a safe cooking method, the nutritional quality of what you put inside it matters most.
