sims1955 I don't really know. But I do know that if it wasn't for the microwave a lot of the young would starve to death. There is no way to know truly if what we drink and eat is really safe anymore.

sims1955 I think so too. My husband and I enjoy a couple of Bud Lights every day sitting on the back porch after a 10 hr work day and after the grandbabies leave. It helps you to unwind and ease your nerves.
