    Yeah the tobacco thing was way earlier than over here. Though it does get more strict.

    Thing is that too include a special microphone in a microwave to listen to popcorn pop is both incredibly specific and over engineered. And I absolutely love every but of that.

    My thing is though, does one use it?

      I’ve never heard of the microphone thing, but I know a lot of microwaves have had preprogrammed food buttons that either have a timer / power level setting or a steam sensor.

      The popcorn thing might be a US thing, but preprogrammed food mode buttons are on lots of microwaves all over the world.

        That’s exactly why I asked. It’s somehow significant enough.

      If they know it exists and works, then it’s fantastic, as good as doing it yourself.

      If it’s a garbage timed thing, it’s possible to start a fire. Out of fear for this kind of functions, the special functions are rarely even tried.
