Grapes double sensor magnetic power in an epic quantum breakthrough (interestingengineering.com)

Adding grapes to microwave setups doubles the magnetic field strength, opening doors for smaller, more efficient quantum sensors.

Jesus this is bad science, and bad science reporting. There was a paper specifically focusing on why grapes burn in microwave - turns out two spherical objects with certain properties tend to focus microwave radiation on the point right in between. Use that knowledge and make some proper antenna instead.

Your criticism is just sour grapes
