    My family has that sloth, and a few other animals in the series. We pretend they are visiting a sauna to warm up before bed.

    Are you supposed to nuke the entire thing? The ones I’ve seen always had a bag inside you take out through a zipper or velcro opening, you nuke the bag and put it back in.

    So basically take out the guts, heat them up and put them back in. Yeah no that’s worse actually.

      We have one by the same company who made the sloth. You nuke the whole thing. I was shocked too. I re-read the instructions several times to be sure. It feels so wrong.

      It might not even matter if you put the whole thing in with the removable ones, too. Though the one my daughter has would barely even fit in the microwave. But microwaves work by using electromagnetic waves to flip water molecules (or other poled molecules). It can also induct a current on metal objects, which can arc if they have pointy parts.

      So a living creature would get pretty fucked up by a microwave, but a stuffy would be fine if it isn’t wet and has no metal or free flowing molecules with different charges on different sides (that would flip like water).

      And the pouches do contain one of those, but in a way designed to work in a microwave.
