That happens with eggs too. One of the reasons i don't have a microwave.
That and the how everything cooked/warmed in one becomes a soggy mess.

I've been known to start heating things up in the microwave and then move them to the toaster oven.
Not grapes, though. ๐
Recently bought the instant pot air fryer combo unit (on sale, ~$100 off) and a new range, and have been consciously avoiding microwaving anything since then. The only exceptions are things that are meant to be microwaved, but those are rare. The perceived quality of everything I eat has skyrocketed!
Chickpeas and beans as well. My microwave looks like a Pollock
Sounds like a fun time to me
Anything wet on the inside and hard on the outside will do that - be careful!
Wait till you find out what happens to a guinea pig in the micro. Wanna have some stupid fun? Put a fork in one.
I learned early on that raw eggs explode in the microwave. Thankfully I put it in a paper lunch bag first, so there wasn't a huge mess. Just The Smell. Don't. Really.
You can microwave to boil them in water I think. Haven't tried it myself though
