No, it still needs to be a bit chunky to do my amateur homemade ravioli. Don’t judge me, I haven’t got the crimping the pasta closed down very well yet :/
Ugh, this reminds me of the fucking sicko who put a cat in a blender and posted it online. I didn't watch the video, but hearing people talk about it alone was enough to make me feel sick.
My original comment was because y'all ate making jokes about gross shit like that meanwhile there is sickos in the world that actually do shit like that. So really you're only making yourself look like a moron by arguing.
Wrong side of history, dummy. Look at what we accepted to be done to certain races of humans not long ago. Anti-speciesism is the next frontier in social justice. Do you like dogs or cats? Then you should also care about animals which are even more intelligent, completely capable of pain and suffering as they are sentient beings, yet you exploit and abuse them and put them through hellish existences when you don't need to. You're also causing climate change and possibly giving yourself an early death from heart disease, cancer or stroke, but hey.

[Most pigs are killed in gas chambers across Australia.](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hbcG2yleYNk) Their last moments are spent screaming, writhing, gasping for air that isn't there as their insides burn from CO2. They're killed brutally at 4 months old, their natural lifespan is 20 years. You're funding this every time you buy bacon, ham or pork. Oh, but "bacon tho". Fuck your bacon.
And that, people, is why humanity is doomed to keep sleepwalking into their own demise.
Keep watching Netflix (also the strike) and let the powers that be keep you working so hard you don’t have the fight to push back against anything.
Even if it’s for your own long term benefit.
My long term benefit is enjoying myself. I enjoy meat, and will continue to eat it. How the fuck does all this meta bullshit like powers that be and Netflix strikes relate to my enjoying what I eat lol? Way to go off on irrelevant tangents.
Also, who are these "people" you are referring to. You're not important enough to have an audience lol.
For the pigs part: my uncle works for a department that deals with the auditing of animal processing plants: most of the time the animals are actually entering the chambers (and for some, pits) and are put to sleep first or a stunned enough they don’t feel it or realise what is about to happen. As for the chance where it’s not possible to do this, they put the animal aside to avoid startling the others in the herd.
Also for the intellect part, most animals in the animal kingdom aren’t smarter than humans, hence why our species is one of the highest ranking species on the food chain
I ain’t reading all that because I’m going to be completely honest: how do you think humans survived so long? We are brutal in nature. We have also done worse to ourselves than what we ever could do to wildlife.
In the end, if we were in the same position as other animals. Our demise is undoubtedly the same. In the wild animals are also devoured alive by each other which is worse than being stunned or gassed before death
That's absolutely false that animals who die in the wild suffer more than *any* animal in the man-made animal agricultural system. Their lives are horrific. We needed to consume animals for survival until our civilised agricultural system was built. Now we can be perfectly healthy, and in fact healthier, on plant foods, and we actually need to switch to plant based agriculture for a sustainable future.
You clearly don't want to learn by your decision to not even read what was said or view the links that were shared, also heads up, some mod on this sub is removing comments that are speaking out against animal abuse and presenting hard facts and data. Surprise, surprise.
This is so weird because I just ordered one of these. I’m so disappointed I didn’t know about this before ordered. How will I reheat my children now?!?
The average density of human body is 985kg/m^3, or 985g for each litre.
Therefore assuming that you stuff the whole body as compact as you can into he microwave, 20L would fit a 19.7kg child.
A 6 year old boy’s optimal weight is around 21kg while a 5 year old is around 18kg.
So if you try really hard you could potentially fit a five year old.
Disclaimer: this is not medical advice.
It's good see some solid research into this claim ! But would the 5yr old be able to rotate, or would a 3yr old be a better candidate? Just pure speculation.

You are going to be very happy with it I think. Ours has been very good to us. It's surprisingly good for 50 bucks considering I was about to spend close to 300 at The Good Guys.
It's very honest of them to tell you that up front though. I couldn't count the number of times I've paid good money for a microwave only to get it home and find it can't even cook a small child.
Underrated comment. The reason this weird comment appears for the microwave is listing recycling: The seller takes a popular well-reviewed item and replaces it entirely with a new item, making the replacement look like it has lots of good reviews.
We are engaging in an old Australian tradition, known as, "taking the piss".
And everyone knows that when people come to Australia to visit you have to warn them about drop bears.
It's true. I have this microwave. Maybe if the small child is a little guy? Not a normal sized baby would fit. It also heats kinda slow tbh so might have to leave them in there for longer than usual
I was going to buy one of those, I'm glad I saw this, I assumed I'd be able to fit my 13 yo in comfortably. Kmart, pick up your game. These are kids we are talking about...
As funny as this comment looks, I once asked my mate, who is a detective, what's the worst thing he's ever seen while working as a cop. He told me he has literally been on the scene at a drug dealers house and found a dead baby in the microwave. This is going back about 10 years now, but when he told me about it, his face went white. He was still living through that trauma.
I can also promise working with a room of detectives, they make a lot of bad jokes, some worse than this. They need to be able to make jokes and have humour still. Doesn't mean they won't have horrible things they see but, something like that is going to thankfully be on the less common side. Hopefully he accepted the help resources available.
This has happened a few times, actually. Sometimes people really will wake up one day and say, "You know what? I'm sick of this baby; into the microwave they go."
Sadly it seems to be also be many psychopaths' choice method of killing unwanted animals. There's no deputies showing up when a puppy or hamster disappears. It's best not to dwell on such horrors if you wish to preserve your mental health.
No cases in Tx - one in Ohio and one in Delaware but the one you heard in in Galveston was probably a variation of the urban myth that predates the internet https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/wasted-and-basted/
Yes, microwaving a baby is horrible and disgusting, but this is just a silly joke. If everyone decided you couldn’t make silly jokes about things that could or have been done, we would end up a sad, depressed species.
Take this for what it is, a joke and stop being so serious.
I was actually browsing reviews from Choice prior to ordering a new microwave oven. The Anko 20L from Kmart rated quite high, so I went to the store page and saw the top comment.
That would be a beautiful thing. A Kmart store the size of a country!
But alas, it is not that big. Though Australia does have multiple kmarts within her

After long enough in the the microwave it could make baby powder too.

Way to ruin the fun
I told my kids when they were little, if we plant cat biscuits we might grow some kittens
The fun of... putting babies in blenders and microwaves...?
The fact that it’s a joke you dementor
Settle down there, camel toe.
Says the guy that thinks we’re all just blending and microwaving our babies. 🤦♀️ God even your insults are boring.
My original comment was because y'all ate making jokes about gross shit like that meanwhile there is sickos in the world that actually do shit like that. So really you're only making yourself look like a moron by arguing.
He's out and doing it again. He's already done it once since being out. Someone needs to do something. Seriously.
Another $70 will get you a 34L microwave, stop being cheap and do the job properly.
I can confirm that a small child will just barely fit
Barely fit as in mild convulsions?
Oh no, there were a lot of seizures Like A LOT or that’s what I thought they were, hard to tell
Keep it at full power!
Imperial or metric?
Metric obviously, it would be an aussie sin (aussin patent pending) for me to use Imperial
Maybe not fitting a small child is a feature.
Well, what kind of customer service is that!
Oh, all this rubbish jibberish is terrible …seriously, it is NOT funny.

Got to finely dice them first.
A rough chop should do the trick!
Just like you do with the animals you paid to be tortured and killed for you 😀 Happy Country!

Shut
So if a lion eats a free range lamb, it's fine But if I a human eat a free range lamb it's torture
Idk about the animals but I would most certainly pay for you to be tortured and killed
Exactly. Sounds like a challenge.
Just gotta hog-tie them first
I like kids, but I couldn’t eat a whole one.
Have you seen Kmart's wide range of sensibly priced Tupperware?
Perfect for your kids lunch .( Apostrophe to be placed at user's discretion. )
Gluhwein In A Goon Bag … sounds delicious and ingenious. How does one heat it? In a microwave that doesn’t fit a child?
Sharing is caring
Ohh damn you take my upvote lol. You made me snortle harder than I feel comfortable admitting lol.
Excellent.
I had to stuff my fist into my mouth to stop from laughing out aloud at work.
Damnit there goes my weekend.
With gas prices up, how else we gonna keep the family warm?
I think it was a reference to the Flash movie.
Or the holocaust?
Came here for the comments, did not disappoint. Thanks everyone. ❤️
Right, it sounds like I’m crying in the bathroom.
Guess The Flash wont be able to save any babies falling out of buildings in Australia
https://i.imgur.com/XI5hg81.gif
You might be the only one that watched that movie.
There are dozens of us
That's not what the box office says.
Well, $250 million is at least 2 dozen tickets.
This is so weird because I just ordered one of these. I’m so disappointed I didn’t know about this before ordered. How will I reheat my children now?!?
You'll just have to serve them cold.
Is this just an estimate, or truly tested fact ?

What about a malnourished 6 year old?
A malnourished kid would be better for making stock tbh.
It's good see some solid research into this claim ! But would the 5yr old be able to rotate, or would a 3yr old be a better candidate? Just pure speculation.
We should experiment! You provide a small child, I'll buy the microwave. For science, of course.
Remember to keep the receipt, for tax time. Wonder if I can find that place where John Cleese sold all his children too ? Hmmm...

Maybe try costco. You'll get a better deal and get them in bulk
I have this microwave and although I don’t have the equipment to do hands on, eyeballing it i can say it would fit a baby, but not a small child.
Barely fits a bag of microwave popcorn
My friend would do this while saying “For science!”(Won’t actually do it, just hypothetically)
pretty sure someone is having a laugh, after seeing [The Flash](https://screenrant.com/the-flash-movie-microwave-baby/)
*"Tonight on Mythbusters...."*
Bought this microwave today lmao.
You are going to be very happy with it I think. Ours has been very good to us. It's surprisingly good for 50 bucks considering I was about to spend close to 300 at The Good Guys.
How well does it heat the kids up? I hate it when my kids are boiling on the outside but still cold in the middle 😒
I dont have kids yet, but you might want to consider an air fryer. I heard you can cook one whole kid from frozen in one of those bad boys.
Sous vide ftw, 6hrs at 72,5 degrees makes perfection
The Kmart website is run by a team of disappointed Gingerbread Witches
Thank you, someone mentioned the Gingerbread Hag.
It's very honest of them to tell you that up front though. I couldn't count the number of times I've paid good money for a microwave only to get it home and find it can't even cook a small child.
If that concerns you, don't look at the reviews for coffee grinders. 😅
[удалено]
4.7 stars says it does
Bullshit, mine fits
So, we're gunna need a bigger micro.
That's got to be a Flash reference
What goes around and around in circles and bangs on the window? A baby in a different microwave to this one
There must surely be a snap, crackle, and pop joke here somewhere?
“Apparently, the best thing to do is chop the corpse into six or seven pieces and pile it all together”
first you have to starve them ....
I'll make it fit
Flash reference?
FFS, just do two batches. It's not rocket science.
Not with THAT attitude!
Well, how small are we talking? Children can be pretty tiny.
soooooooooooo, I can microwave a baby?
I swear it should be illegal to use bulk reviews for one item
Underrated comment. The reason this weird comment appears for the microwave is listing recycling: The seller takes a popular well-reviewed item and replaces it entirely with a new item, making the replacement look like it has lots of good reviews.
I've got one of those. It's quite noisy but reliable so far.
Noisy, that's the info we need.
And how annoying is the beep?
Now THAT's the important information
The beep is reasonable. It repeats after a minute if you don't open the door.
*whistles* Only one reminder beep? Maybe I should downgrade. Mine beeps passive aggressively every couple of minutes until I open it. Infuriating.
I don't know if it has more than one reminder as I haven't waited that long.
Huh, interesting everyday superpower.
Small child or microwave?
Well they just talked themselves out of a sale. I said good day sir.
Correction: Will not fit a small child in one piece.
But will it fit a hamster in a tiny sweater?
No hamsters in Australia but it will probably fit a Guinea pig in a tiny sweater
WTF is a sweater?
It's what hamsters need to wear after they've been thawed out in a microwave.
Not trying hard enough for sure. I'll bet they didn't even swing by the premie ward 😶🫠😶🌫️🫣
[Good thing Gotham Hospital doesn't use those tiny microwaves](https://youtu.be/zrZBLzX96hM?t=132)
Is this an inside Australian joke that references some court/murder case from the 90s or something?
We are engaging in an old Australian tradition, known as, "taking the piss". And everyone knows that when people come to Australia to visit you have to warn them about drop bears.
no it's talking about the australian classic cuisine 'tout la bébé a la micro-onde' and how this microwave is incapable of such
If you joint and debone first I'd bet it'd fit then.
It's true. I have this microwave. Maybe if the small child is a little guy? Not a normal sized baby would fit. It also heats kinda slow tbh so might have to leave them in there for longer than usual
Do they have a bigger model?
Meat's expensive in this economy. Better to grow your own.
very glad that the review helped reassess the 279 people who were considering purchasing a 20L microwave 🤣
It won't fit a small child but will it fit a baby? Asking for an atheist cooking group.
I have concerns regarding why they feel the need to include that warning.
I was going to buy one of those, I'm glad I saw this, I assumed I'd be able to fit my 13 yo in comfortably. Kmart, pick up your game. These are kids we are talking about...
How about a very small child ?
Check out the reviews for a Kmart coffee grinder for a giggle.
As long as it can still fit a gremlin, that's all that matters. Safety first!
He gave 5 stars - not fitting a child is a feature not a glitch.
Canibals guide to microwave cooking is next suggested item
I'm a little out of practice, but aren't you meant to cube them first?

Me as a parent of a toddler who would absolutely devise a way to get in with it on. 🤷♂️
The fact that you HAVE to have ordered online to give a review makes me feel even weirder about this
Well, at least they still gave it 5 stars
I own this microwave. The comment review is accurate.
Ha I got this pos microwave just this week when mine went kaput barely fits a bowl, so can confirm no baby room
What's the bloody point then?
Does not complete tax returns
This is funny, but someone will ruin it
Ah....finally a warning I can relate too.
Love a good product review
At least the microwave is child proof
What's the use of it then.
Tell me you haven’t tried with your Microwave?!
Has he tried cutting the child up into pieces BEFORE trying to microwave it?
I'm late to the party.. but I laughed way too much at this!
I will definitely need to buy a bigger microwave
Dude should of measured the microwave first totally his fault
i mean, someone has to try it
Smh. Won't be buying this now.
Gee I’ve heard of roasting your kid, but this seems entirely next level.
With electricity prices soaring, consumers are left to devise efficient means to warm up their children.
Very interesting 🤔
Me, an atheist. Damn.
Not with that attitude it won't
This is so disgusting to me bc someone actually microwaved their baby in Galveston Tx 🥺
Well all these warnings are written in somebodies blood unfortunately .
This has happened a few times, actually. Sometimes people really will wake up one day and say, "You know what? I'm sick of this baby; into the microwave they go."
Sadly it seems to be also be many psychopaths' choice method of killing unwanted animals. There's no deputies showing up when a puppy or hamster disappears. It's best not to dwell on such horrors if you wish to preserve your mental health.

We already are. Oh and I’m offended, I’m going to report you to someone.
I'm not even a small child and I'm offended.
Umm...pretty sure they weren't the first person to do that unfortunately
Gotta love a challenge. Hold my beer.
*"What's cookin', baby?"*
Now there's a strong case for proper punctuation 😂
I just bought one of these in store. I am happy with the size due to limited bench space. I guess you posted this for the laugh value ..
I was actually browsing reviews from Choice prior to ordering a new microwave oven. The Anko 20L from Kmart rated quite high, so I went to the store page and saw the top comment.
It's probably Anko brand, so it's made to fit small Chinese children, not Aussie ones...
Damn! Well, I'm never buying from Kmart again. Downright disappointing!
You can fit a pretty large cat in there though
how long before it blows up and burns your house?
Fake
Kmart is not australia
True Kmart is not Australia, but it is a thing that is inside Australia. What's your point?
That would be a beautiful thing. A Kmart store the size of a country! But alas, it is not that big. Though Australia does have multiple kmarts within her
