No the fuck it does not. I’m one of those people that actually cleans theirs. Seeing any kind of spill in the microwave, or stuff on the walls, grosses me out.
this isnt about spills. the point is that microwaves arent self-cleaning on a microbial level. even if your microwaves looks prestine, it could still house a lot of bacteria that are capable of surviving radiation.
Seems like it's pretty much like any other surface in your kitchen, it requires regular cleaning.
it’s like any other surface anywhere - even if you clean it regularly it will still have bacteria on it. but the thing is most bacteria are not harmful.
I don't like external bacteria that can survive radiation...
What a weird thing to attack someone over.
