Burnt Brownie Ignites Home Fire: Ex-EMT Reveals Hidden Dangers and Essential Safety Tips
Household Fire Safety Alert: The Hidden Danger of Burnt Food A recent incident involving a microwaved brownie has brought to light a critical, yet often overlooked, aspect of household fire safety. A woman, who identified herself as a former EMT with over ten years of experience in a fire department, shared a cautionary tale and vital advice on social media, garnering significant attention. The incident began when a young woman accidentally microwaved a brownie for two minutes instead of twenty seconds. The brownie started smoking and, believing it was no longer a threat, she disposed of it in her trash can. Shortly after, the burnt brownie ignited a fire in her home. The former EMT, Ali, explained the science behind this danger: "Fire doesn't need a flame to start. It can start from something really, really hot. Inside the black, charred, burnt parts of the food, there can actually be little embers, like a campfire." She likened it to an overcooked bag of popcorn burning a hole, noting that a trash can provides ample fuel for such embers to reignite into a full-blown fire. Ali stressed the importance of proper disposal. "If you burn something in the microwave and you see there's smoke, what you're going to do is you are going to shut the microwave again," she advised, to contain the smoke and potential fire. Once the smoke subsides and the microwave is off, she recommends placing the burnt item in a safe, non-flammable location like a sink or stove top. Crucially, she added, "You first put cold water over it so that no embers could be left, and you make sure that it is not smoking. There is no active new smoke coming from this food." She concluded by urging viewers to set a timer for 10 or 20 minutes to check on disposed burnt items, reiterating, "Fire is no joke, especially in your home with your loved ones." This expert advice serves as a timely reminder for all households to review their fire safety practices, particularly concerning the disposal of seemingly extinguished burnt materials.
