I don't know how true this is but as soon as I get enough people together with cell phone I will try it. If anyone else here can try it please post your results here.

I rarely use the microwave. Makes food nasty. Not sure what to tell you as far as radiation. I just don't care for it. The microwave does not "radiate" your food. It bounces the water molecules together rapidly to heat things up. No way you could pop corn with your cell.

I Think this has come across the forum before. I got a few friends together to try it and it didn't work. No video, sorry!

I get these this type of stuff everyday and it always seems to be made up. I don;t know why people forward this kind of stuff without trying to see if it's true. Snopes.com is an excellent source for debunking this stuff.

I use the microwave all the time for heating things and finds it does an excellent job. I on the other hand all but never use a cell phone.
