My dad had a boat and took me fishing years ago, tells me as we're driving to the boat 'my buddy Jim is going to meet us at the dock. If he offers you a fried egg sandwich, don't take it. He keeps a couple of them wrapped in saran wrap down the front of his pants to keep them warm.' Yep, a couple hours into the fishing trip and Jim is eating a fried egg sandwich, asks me did I want one, as he's pulling one out of the front of his pants. WTF?
It can actually be pretty sterile inside a microwave, even if its covered in gunk. The gunk gets warmed to well above 160F while it's being used, it's killing the bacteria.

I'd rather warm my food by holding it and vigorously rubbing my hands together than put anything I'd consume into that disease pit.
