Of course, it might be that Heinz have discovered a way to defy the laws of physics, but somehow I doubt it.

if this were "pot noodle" then id guess its a joke, but we are talking the "Heinz" company here, so im not so sure its a joke.
but then reviewing the microwave cooking here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven
shows a currently effective efficiency of some 64% power usage, so if this USB microwave story is true, its got to be some weard new magnetron and waveguide concentration design inside the clearly generic faraday cage of the pictures...
