DISASTER almost struck a hungry mum who decided to microwave her McDonald's – while it was still in its delivery bag.
Rachael Higgins placed her 5am Uber Eats order in the microwave, complete with its paper bag, napkins and plastic sauce pots.
The mum-of-four uploaded the not-so-shocking aftermath to TikTok, showing the charred brown bag and burnt ketchups.

We've all had a cold McDonald's delivered before, but have you ever re-heated it – you'd take it out the bag, right… right?
"I wanna cry," miffed mum Rachael told her followers earlier this week. "Obviously McDonald's is always f—ing freezing cold when it comes."

Rachael realised something was wrong when her fire alarm started going off, as well as a strong smell of burning in her house.
"The house stinks, the smoke alarm has been going off and my food is ruined," she said.
We imagine she received some interesting comments, as they appear to be disabled on her upload – which has amassed 645,000 views.
In a follow-up clip, she said: "So, I've just had a microwave fire. And guess what, the food is still f—ing freezing.
"Even after going through a fire, why I order from this place I don't f—ing know."
Determined to still eat her early-morning snack, she filmed herself tucking into the burnt burger, joking that it tasted "smoky".
