When you cook food in a microwave oven why doesn't the plate get get cooked?

Plates are usually either ceramic or glass. Both materials are transparent to the microwave radiation in a microwave oven. The electromagnetic energy goes right through the plates like they weren't there. It is the food that heats the plate as that food is being heated. Remember that the microwave radiation is "tuned" to work on the hydrogen-oxygen bonds in water. It gives them "energy" and heats them up. There are some plates that will actually get a bit hot directly from the microwave energy, but that depends on the composition of the plate.
