I am sorry that a 50 cent cup noodle whips your entire country’s “cuisine” but it’s true.

there’s this cool thing where we have machines that emit radiation which creates dipolar polarization in water molecules at about 2.45 GHz. And they heat up food. Actually invented by a Brit but he was probably chemically castrated or burned at the stake or some such before we commercialized it.
