Microwaves have a longer wavelength than X-rays or Gamma rays but we use them to cook our food. Why and how?

Explanation:

In microwave ovens what matters is how much energy the radiation carries and how that energy is absorbed by the food. Visible light and IR are rapidly absorbed by most foods, so they would only heat the outer layer of the food. You'd get food with the outside carbonised and the inside raw.

the inner core.
