The product, in the report: Marie Callender’s Large Size Turkey Pot Pie
I microwaved a Marie Callender’s Large Size Turkey Pot Pie, and it caught fire. The directions said to microwave it for 8.5-10 minutes, so I set it at 9 minutes. When I came back, smoke was coming out of the microwave, and the food and its container were burnt and scorched. I was not injured. UPC 0 21131 50692 6, Use By May 01 2025. I have already reported this incident to Conagra, with photos, but these pot pies are a dangerous fire hazard, with their metal foil browning surfaces which can overheat to the point of fire.

The product, in the report: Marie Callenders Bowl series. In my case the Sesame Chicken and Roasted Garlic Chicken
The Marie Callenders Bowl series of microwavable food has a very unstable bowl construction that basically collapses when removed from the microwave. When griped by the edges it folds in half. In my case I was burned by the steam and dropped the hot food container on the floor. This is very dangerous and was reported to the manufacturer on 8/20/2020.
