A rotary receptacle for use in a microwave oven includes a plastic housing, in which food may be inserted, with projections therein to mix the food within the housing as the receptacle turns. The axes of the receptacle, which are connected to the driving mechanism, may be offset from the longitudinal axis of the housing to produce a tumbling effect. The housing may be made of transparent plastic. Alternately it may be constructed of an open wire mesh.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
A microwave oven for cooking food comprising: an oven for heating said food, said oven having first and second oppositely disposed walls; means for generating microwaves in said oven; means for providing non-microwave cooking energy in said oven; receptacle means, rotatably and removably supported by said first and second walls and including a body for containing said food and shafts removably supported by said first and second walls, said receptacle means for receiving said food; means for rotating said shafts; and means responsive to the presence of said shafts in said first and second walls, for disabling said microwave generating means whenever said receptacle means is disposed in said oven.
2.
A microwave oven according to claim 1, wherein said receptacle means comprises a receptacle body defining an opening and a cover fitting said opening.
3.
A microwave oven according to claim 1, wherein said rotating means includes means for selectively rotating said receptacle means continuously and intermittently.
4.
A microwave oven according to claim 1, wherein said receptacle means further comprises at least one projection disposed within said receptacle for agitating said object food.
5.
A microwave oven according to claim 4, comprising two said projections, said projections being disposed at different positions with respect to a longitudinal axis of said receptacle means.
6.
A microwave oven according to claim 1, wherein said receptacle means rotate about an eccentric axis.
7.
A microwave oven according to claim 1, wherein said body of said receptacle means comprises a wire cage.
8.
Apparatus as in claim 7 wherein said wire cage includes two pivotally interconnected halves.
9.
A microwave oven as in claim 7 wherein said wire cage includes wires forming said body shaped in a rhomboidal pattern.
10.
A microwave oven according to claim 1, wherein said means for rotating includes switch means for selectively activating and deactivating said rotating means
