Now, you might be wondering, why does it take so long to heat up a turkey? Well, it's all about the density of the meat, baby! The thicker the turkey, the longer it takes to heat up. And if you're wondering, the average fully cooked turkey can weigh anywhere from 10-20 pounds, so that's a lot of meat to heat up!
It's also important to note that even heating is crucial to avoid foodborne illnesses. You don't want any bacteria partying in your turkey, do you? So, make sure to use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature, which should be at least 165°F (74°C).
Now, let's talk about some fun facts! Did you know that the first microwave oven was invented in 1947, and it was called the "Radarange"? Or that the world's largest turkey was over 73 pounds? Yeah, that's one big bird!
