Almost ate the onion here. I was like, exploding Tesla sandwiches, sure. I am curious about the specifics, but not incredulous.

Lol! My thought process went like:

Well of course they microwave their sandwiches. Wait‽… You can’t superheat tuna salad. There are too many nucleation sites.

Ah, my fellow-in-arms! You too know the glorious spectacle of microwaved foil & fork! Huzzah! For SCIENCE!

Same. I thought to myself, if anyone could/would fail so hard that they made an exploding sandwich, it’d be Elon musk.
