Question
Hello. 1. Is there an issue with heating something meaty in a microwave that you want to use for pareve (and not become meaty)? 2. And if there is an issue, if someone places it, will a pareve dish become meaty or something else? Also: Can one place a dairy dish (since it was used for meaty in the past)?
Answer
Shalom and blessings
There is no problem using a meat utensil for a pareve dish.
If the utensil was clean, without noticeable meaty food, the heated dish remains pareve.
In any case, someone who ate a pareve dish heated in a meat microwave does not need to wait 6 hours before eating dairy.
One should not use a meat microwave to heat a dairy dish.
