“…However, a significant challenge in microwave food processing arises from the uneven heat distribution within food items. Variations in dielectric materials, discontinuities between food items and surrounding air, power distribution, and positioning contribute to these uneven hot and cold spots, fostering pathogen growth and increasing the risk of foodborne illnesses [4][5][6][7][8][9]. To enhance food safety, pasteurization and sterilization are employed to deactivate pathogenic microorganisms through thermal treatment.…”

“…Consequently, chemical or radiation treatments are applied in industries to extend the shelf life of packed foods. While high-temperature heating effectively eradicates microorganisms, it can compromise sensory and nutritional qualities [5]. Unlike high-frequency radiation like gamma and X-rays, which can alter nutrient content and induce hazardous bacterial mutations, microwave energy solely provides thermal treatment without modifying molecular structures.…”

“…Despite decades of evidence demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of food irradiation, there still exists some irrational silence and misunderstanding. Some radical organizations create irresponsible fears through irrelevant associations, such as Hiroshima, Chernobyl, or cancer [5]. Surveys indicate that the public is concerned about the safety and effectiveness of food irradiation [6].…”
