Behold, [Microwave for One.](http://www.amazon.com/Microwave-One-Sonia-Allison/dp/1852250437/ref=sr_1_1?tag=ohmy0c-20)

Mod note: Added a spoiler box to comply with NSFW two-click rule. The book itself is fine, but the “people also looked at” boxes include some extremely gross, extremely graphic photos. – twickster
