'''Microwave ovens''' are small appliances, which are treated as a sort of [[stove]], that can be used to cook [[food]] in ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims 3]]'', and ''[[The Sims 4]]''.
==The Sims==▼
In ''The Sims 2'', a microwave oven can only prepare a TV dinner and a Cup o' Ramen {{vgversion|University}}, and the Cup o' Ramen can only be prepared in a microwave. Sims can burn food that is being cooked in a microwave, though it will not catch on fire. If a household has a microwave and a full scale stove, clicking on the microwave and choosing to make a TV dinner does not ensure that the Sim will use the microwave. Microwave ovens may break, and can be repaired. If ''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime|FreeTime]]'' is installed, they can be [[Tinkering|tinkered]] with.▼
In ''The Sims 3'', the frozen heat-and-eat meal is called a "Microwave Meal", and Sims can microwave hot dogs and tofu dogs. ''[[The Sims 3: University Life]]'' added ramen, [[pizza]], popcorn, curry wurst, and a breakfast burrito as quick meals that can be microwaved.<ref>[http://simsvip.com/game-guides/sims-3-university-life/ The Sims 3 University Life Game Guide] at SimsVIP</ref>▼
