<human>:  What is the difference between a microwave oven and a traditional oven?
<bot>: The main difference between a microwave oven and a traditional oven is the way they cook food. A microwave oven uses microwaves to heat the food, while a traditional oven uses heat generated from a source such as gas or electricity. A traditional oven also has a greater capacity for cooking larger meals. Additionally, a traditional oven often has more functions and settings than a microwave oven.
