I think most of you know how these are made already - it's a conically focused laser beam that heats up the glass at a certain point, repeated over and over.

Now I think most of you also know that microwaves are annoying because they heat the outside of your food, but leave the inside cold because microwaves only penetrate a little bit through food.

Would it be possible to microwave food from the inside out using a conical X-ray beam? Would that even work? It'd be a shitton more convenient if it did.

Discuss.
