Does anyone have a good tip on how to get all the dried old stuff off a microwave? Mine never seems to come that clean no matter how often I scrub it

i put a bowl of h ot water and some lemon juice in it and just ran it through for about a minute, then wiped it out with a paper towel and then did it again - the steam seems to loosen the dried up bits.

Have you tried putting half a lemon in and zapping it on high for a minute? The oils are released over the inside of the mocrowave and help to soften any dried on food. Makes it smell nice too!

Bowl of water and some slices of lemon, put it in and basically bring the water to boiling, take it out and the dirt should wipe out pretty easily.

I thought that was a good idea - just never tried it. Thanks
