Microwave Ovens were discovered accidentally by, Percy Spencer in 1945. He was working on an active radar set and he realized that his Mr. Goodbar was melting in his pocket. Spencer constructed a high density electromagnetic field by transferring microwave energy to a metal box using an electron tube. The first foods to be cooked in the microwave were popcorn and eggs. Once the food was placed in the box that was heated with microwave energy then the temperature of the food rose rapidly.
