This question was asked in the cooking section last year, but it wasn't really resolved. Last night, I was making guacamole and all I had were frozen onions and I didn't want to take the time to thaw them naturally, so I microwaved some chopped onion on a paper plate. A couple of bits started sparking and popping so much that they were a little charred. The onions were not in the microwave for long (30 seconds). Does anybody have any idea what causes this?
