Microwave ovens cook food by tuning to a specific resonant frequency of water molecules.

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that microwave ovens cook food by tuning to a specific resonant frequency of water molecules?

No. A physics discussion states microwave ovens operate at 2.45 GHz, which is not the resonant frequency of a water molecule, and a physics article attributes microwave heating of food to dielectric relaxation of water rather than resonant tuning.
