And today, ladies and gentlemen, I learned that not all to-go cartons are microwave safe. The container on the left, containing my lunch, and the container on the right began life as the same size. One minute and thirty seconds later, I had a shrinky-dink.
O______O!! That is…amazing, it looks like a little bowl now. We both seem to be having kitchen mishaps. But I’ll definitely take a shrinky-dink container over an over fire O_O
Thank goodness you are in NYC where there is a pizza joint on every street. Oh! and the dessert truck isn’t that far away and now you have a bonified excuse to visit it.
Ya sure that’s not a shrinky drink?
At least it was a fun lesson. Did you decorate it like a real shrinky dink?
Also, yes, good thing it didn’t catch fire.
Hmmm. Makes me wonder if a) the container actually lost mass and b) if so, where did the missing mass go? Hopefully, not into your food.
It was Number 6 plastic, wasn’t it.
We’ve been collecting number 6 plastic here, because you can, in fact, make shrinkydinks out of it. We’ve got a respectable pile on a shelf in the laundry room, and sometime soon we’re going to break out the colored Sharpies and have a shrinking party.
