yes

it make your microwave really really sad


The real question is

does putting oven dinners in the microwave make any difference? The answer is yes. Yes it does.


it's slower

and waiting for stuff is rubbish


possibly

because microwaves heat things up in a different way? So it might make it drier or something. unless you can do both with them.


if it's a plastic container

make sure you don't turn the grill thing (technical term) on the oven on or you might end up with wilted burnt plastic melting into your food (as I have learnt)which is not too tasty on a scale of 1 to 10.


It

takes an hour longer to cook in the oven than it does in the microwave which means you're hungrier when you eat it which makes it seem more delicious.


Recently I had the time and inclination

to do a test.

The answer was: Not really.

People spoke to me like this piece of shit frozen food that I don't really care about would turn into an incredible meal, if cooked in an oven.

It was a bit drier and took longer - I think if you're the sort of person, like me, who eats microwave meals then you're probably not enormously fussed as long as it tastes okay and makes your body go.

Conclusion: just stick with the microwave.
