True Story

This happened about twenty minutes ago. We are also based in a very liberal town.

We do not have a pick to go service restaurant, it's mostly reservations, but if someone calls or walks in, we do what we can to satisfy their needs.

So about twenty minutes ago, in walks a client who wants a soup to go, she wanted mushroom, I only had a fresh made Butternut. She settles for the Butternut. In order to save time, I place the soup in a ceramic bowl and open the door to the microwave, when I hear, a rather loud screeching "On, no nonono no!
I turn,"is there a problem"? I ask?
Her eye have gone from the horizontal to the vertical as she has tilted her head in an extreme fashion, still saying, nononono....I'm like WTF, Over?
She states" you can put that soup in the microwave, it will change its structure!
Calmly, questioning, not sure what I'm dealing with, I ask "Change it's structure", to what?
"Well you breakdown all the cell structure in the soup".
"Madam, the soup is a puree", it hasn't any cell structure, the whole purpose is to render the flavor from the vegetable, through the cooking process, a solid to a liquid state".
"Well, a micro can't be possibly good for the enviorment". she replies.
Ah, one of those...
"But, madam, I am trying to protect mother earth, a microwave does not require fossil fuels for its energy source, how are we to have a sustainable future, if you prevent me from experimenting for the future, which will surly be solar relient, we need to be thinking about the future, you would not want to be a determent to a healthy and sustainable future would you"?

"No, of course not", she stated, confused and distracted she never saw the soup removed from the mic & place in the bag.

"That'll be $10 dollars please"

Enjoy, gotta get back to the range.

If only there were microwaves large enough for her climb inside with her soup to observe the process.
