I had mentioned yesterday that I had cooked CDs and DVDs just to see the sparkle effects on them. Do NOT try them at home. It could result in serious fire hazard or permanent damage to your microwave oven.
I just wanted to show you here how a DVD looks after sitting inside a microwave for only 5 seconds. The image below shows a normal “raw” uncooked DVD.
Observe the random pattern burnt on the surface and the colorful effects around the burn mark. In fact you will not see any dark tell-tale burnt mark on the DVD. It is all in golden hue.
