A method of simultaneously sterilizing a first object and a second object that includes providing a first container with a first exterior surface, the first exterior surface comprises a first microwave interactive layer and defines a first interior space having a first initial temperature. The first object is placed within the first interior space of the first container. The method includes the step of providing a second container with a second exterior surface, the second exterior surface comprises a second microwave interactive layer and defines a second interior space having a second initial temperature. A second object is placed within the second interior space of the second container. The first and second microwave interactive layers are exposed to a first amount of microwaves so that the first microwave layer produces heat which raises the temperature within the first interior space to a predetermined sterilization temperature. The temperature is maintained within the first interior space at the predetermined temperature for an amount of time sufficient to sterilize the first and second objects.
