    I stupidly burnt some Chicken in the microwave earlier. Have now thoroughly cleaned it and boiled some water with lime juice in (didn't have lemon) to take away the burnt stench - but it's still not great.
    Any ideas to what I can do to help with the stink? :confused:
    Thanks

    tried wiping with damp cloth dipped in bicarbonate of soda? this eliminates most smells.
