@ai6yr According to USDA, arcing hot dogs and sausages are not uncommon. Uneven mixing of salts contributes. Root veggies like carrots can do the same thing.
Side note-google's AI crap makes a search like this close to impossible. Their own results are utter nonsense. They must be aware, right?

In response to this post@W6KME @ai6yr Reminds me of a fun thing to do with a grape -- slice it in half lengthwise, then put the two pieces in the microwave, cut side up, with the pieces as close together as you can without touching. It will arc between the two pieces.
This demonstrates that thing where the E field is highest near a sharp point or corner.

that is so cool!
when i was in the service on midnight shift, we did all sorts of "things to do in someone else's microwave" but i never knew this one.
things we did do:
- microwave a CD
- microwave a wooden pencil
- microwave a york peppermint patty
- grape races
