    I’m surprised nobody is talking about accidentally flash-boiling in the microwave. Is that because they microwave the tea bag in the water in the cup? Because if you have clean water without the teabag, you could get a cup of exploding water in your face after you disturb the cup.

    Maybe there is enough lead in the water to prevent this in America.

        I’ve had it happen with tap water.

        But I used to live in a place where the tap water had ridiculously low mineral content, so ymmv.
