UNLESS YOUR PAPER TOWEL states it's microwavable, please do not put it in the microwave, it's a MASSIVE FIRE RISK, Guys.

Paper towels and even waxed paper may contain minute metal flecks.
When a microwave oven is operating, the interaction between microwaves and the metal can cause sparks and even flames.
