I know I have read of studies where plastic wrap that is kept on foods while being microwaved have been shown to "leach" carcinogens into the food. To put it into perspective, carcinogens don't automatically give a person cancer, but enough of them in your system predispose (increase the risk) you to cancer. Obviously, it makes sense to avoid getting as many carcinogens in you as possible... thus improving your odds of NOT getting cancer.
