There are many types of food wrapping such as plastic wraps, aluminum foil, etc. However, many of them are not microwave safe. Most [if not all] kinds of plastic wrappings will melt if put in the microwave. Aluminum foil is actually a metal, so that is a definite no-no for the microwave.

The only thing I suggest if you want to microwave food in a wrapper is wax paper. However, even some types of wax paper might not be suitable for the microwave. Your best bet is to use a bowl/plate that you know is microwave-safe, or use a paper towel under your food. Nothing will happen to the paper towel if you heat your food correctly [in a suitable time frame].

And of course, make sure your food is in an OPEN container/wrapping. Closed containers can cause it to explode as the steam that is created might force the container lid open. Keep it open [this includes wrappers, don't wrap the food so tight] and let the steam come out to avoid any explosions.
