Percy Spencer. On October 8, 1945, Raytheon filed a US patent for Spencer's microwave cooking-process, and an oven that heated food using microwave energy from a magnetron was soon placed in a Boston restaurant for testing.

The first time the public was able to use a microwave oven was in January 1947, when the Speedy Weeny vending machine was placed in Grand Central Terminal to dispense "sizzling delicious" hot dogs.
