Abstract (en)
A pad (14) for use in the cooking of food (12) placed thereon in a microwave oven is disclosed. The pad (14) is specifically designed for use in connection with food (12), (e.g., bacon strips) that contains a substantial amount of solidified grease which melts when the food is cooked by microwave radiation. The pad (14) is formed from an entangled web formed from at least one generally hydrophobic and grease absorbing multilayer microfiber. The web is formed by combining at least two streams of flowable polymer materials (e.g., polypropylene and polyethylene terephthalate) in a layered, combined flowstream, extruding the combined flowstream through a die having at least one orifice, attenuating the extruding flowstream with a high velocity gaseous stream to form fiber, and collecting the fiber on a collective surface so as to form the entangled web. A pad (14) so formed is capable of holding the amount of grease in the food (12) placed thereon when the grease is heated by cooking the food (12) in a microwave oven. <IMAGE>
