Need A Cooker?
Use Your Cell Phone
By Sue Mueller

Many organizations including the cell phone industry often downplay the risk of cell phone radiation to the brain. Results from short-term studies were used to convince consumers that use of a cell phone is not associated with brain tumors or cancer, which only develop decades after exposure.

To be fair, no one knows exactly how much harm a cell phone can do to a person. Howe

Recently, new media has reported a study showing the radiation from cell phones is so full of energy they can be used to cook eggs.

In the experiment, researchers placed one egg in a porcelain cup (because it is easy to conduct heat), and put one cell phone on one side and another cell phone on t...

i question the validity of the first post, no scientific data to back up, no pics, sorry not buying it, if that person really feels they are dangerous, then use a landline

to me the benefits of a cell phone are far more important than an unproven health risk, my cell helped me out in the worst of times i had

The "radiation" that they refer to is actually radiant heat, also known as inductive heat. They have been installing heaters this use this in houses since electricity.... This is not the stuff that will give you cancer. The FCC used a study like this misunderstood one as the reason to limit cell phone power, because the "radiation" is going to kill you. There has never been any cancer directly related to cell phone "radiation" and never will be.

(sorry about the rant, I'm tired of stupid people afraid to use their cell phones for a long time, cuz they can feel it "causing cancer")

the range of radiation that cell phones produce are tooo minute to hurt you and the radiation doesnt have enought power to change and ionize your dna, which would cause cancer, the only rays that can cause cancer are x-rays, gamma, and cosmic rays btw we are bombarded by millions of cosmic rays a day that have not been filtered through the atmosphere and they too are minute,

its more dangerous to get an x-rays in your mouth at the dentist's office than to talk on your phone for a very long time

You can't get away from the sun though. You CAN be ignorant about cell phones and choose not to use them for ridiculous reasons. You can't choose to not use the sun.

Excellent!

Finally, it is possible to make food on the go 😈 🤤

Or wait... maybe there is a reason why kids are getting dumber and dumber. Not because of the shows on tv but parents giving them cell phones.

Or maybe it doesn't really matter at all. All the smart people use the headset to talk while the idiots are still driving and talking without the headset.
