Heating Cheese in a Meat Microwave

Question

Is it permissible to heat completely sealed and wrapped cheese, even in a bag, in a meat microwave?

Answer

Shalom Rav,

According to Halacha, it is permissible to heat cheese in a meat microwave if it is covered with two tightly sealed and tied bags.

This ruling applies to one-time use when no other option is available, but it is not advisable to use this method regularly, as frequent use may lead to mistakes, such as heating without a sealed bag, and similar issues.
