Foil over microwave

I heated up a ham steak for dinner last night. We usually wrap it in foil and put it in the toaster oven. Thinking about waste, I considered if I should heat it up in the microwave instead. But we generally try to avoid the microwave as much as possible. Especially for meat, I don't like what it does to the taste and texture, not to mention potential health concerns. So I ended up using some aluminum foil. But I reused some that we had been keeping in the drawer. Afterwards, it was clean enough to rinse and put in the recycling.
