We also all know that eggs explode in a microwave
But when I found my boiled egg was not fully cooked, I thought "Aha! Since I've broken the shell, it will be OK to zap it to finish it off!"
Unfortunately, it's not the egg expanding inside the shell that makes it explode. It's the yolk expanding inside the white. So opened eggs still go foom.
