It took much less time than I thought it would. First this from WaPo on Wednesday:
Here’s some good news for everyone who worries about germs: Zapping that soggy kitchen sponge in the microwave for a couple of minutes can pretty much sterilize it.
And here’s WaPo from Friday:
Kitchen sponge users, beware. Microwaving sponges can sterilize them but can also apparently have a downside: Some sponges may burst into flames.
All those who didn’t see that coming, please leave the room now.

Lol? Now, if the sponge bursts into flames, is the sponge wet or dry?

I’m thinking it gets so hot that the water evaporates.
I also wonder how long it’ll be before someone does this with a SpongeBob toy.
