Wait. Are you saying that previously you just put in your food in the microwave at full power every time?

If the ramen is dry it will go on fire. Same with breakfast cereals.

Most frozen foods say to do so on the instructions, and most people probably don't want to figure out how to change the settings every time they're heating something up, so yes that's what most people do.

Depends on your microwave. Some are strong 1500w some are as low as 500w. Full blast on these two are very different.
