  1. No one hurt

    Made Feb 4, 2026, sent to the company Feb 10, 2026, published by CPSC Feb 25, 2026

    The product, in the report: This is a home delivered meal from Factor_ sometimes called Factor 75. It was Loaded Bacon Shredded Chicken.

    So about 10 minutes ago, I went to microwave a Factor_ loaded bacon shredded chicken dinner.

    Instructions were to remove the cup, theres actually 2 cups, so I assume that they meant to move both of them and I did so.

    They then said to microwave it for two minutes, venting the clear cover, so I did that as well.

    After maybe one minute 40 seconds into the microwaving, I smelled heavy smoke, and I looked in the microwave, and I saw that the meal was on fire. No, it wasnt a huge fire, but I could see orange flames, so I turned off the microwave and removed the dinner, which was still smoking heavily.

    You can see that the area of the tray where the cup used to be was the part lit on fire, and it looked like the other one was starting to burn, and probably wouldve done so if I hadnt been in the kitchen to shut things down fast.

    I was pretty surprised by this. If someone had put it into the microwave, and not been standing right next to it, I think it couldve potentially started a fire. It was kind of one of those WTF moments.

    And if youre asking if I ate the dinner, I did, smoky flavor at all. I just transferred it to a different plate, and I added the cups of sauce, even though they didnt give me those instructions.
