Filler for microwaveable beanbag warmers?

Saturday, July 9th, 2011
Switchback asked:


If I wanted to make a microwaveable bean bag is there anything I can fill it with besides food products? (like corn, rice, cherry pits, etc) any sort of plastic or something? I don’t know what’s microwaveable or what holds heat. Thanks
I’m looking for something that cannot potentially explode.
