Things like french fries or nachos are never really good the next day, but I love most leftovers! I'm planning to get Chinese food tonight and then eat it again tomorrow!
totally ate my peruvian leftovers and they were faaaaaaantastic. agree with ALSW...nachos, definitely gotta let go after initial consumption. i've found that most asian food is the best for
leftovers. italian, too. i always try to keep halves of sandwiches, but those only keep for a few hours usually. soggy babies :[
I grew up in a no leftovers household (my mom grew up in one too, who knows, she thinks they're gross), but now that I'm an adult (kinda) I'm learning to eat delicious leftovers whenever I
please.
It depends. Homemade soups, stews, chili, cassaroles and Italian are ussually good if not better the next day. Soggy stuff is gross. Asian is good. I live with four males so sometimes there
aren't any!
I had no idea there were people who didn't. My family is far from poor, but throwing away food is still something you Do Not Do. If worst comes to worst, there's always the compost heap. Or
the dogs.
It depends. I agree about the mac and cheese. it makes gross leftovers. I don't like to waste food but If it something that i know we won't reheat i will throw it away or else i find it
months later stuck in the back of the fridge and moldy.
I usually pack stuff up and it sits in my fridge until I have to scrape it down the disposal.
That's because The Man says he will take them for lunch, but leaves them so he can eat fast food.
Some things, like spaghetti I like as leftovers. I LOOOOOVE taco leftover day!!
I never had to eat leftovers growing up, though. Now my mom has my teen bro and sis and it seems like that's all they ever eat (I always wonder when they MAKE the food in the first place.)
I am a leftover person. I love taking them to work because they leave me much more satisfied than sandwiches. However, there are some foods that I just can't eat again. My faves are pizza,
taco meat, stroganoff, and sloppy joes.
Speaking of leftover pizza, if you reheat it in a skillet over medium-low heat, it's even better than it is the first time around. It may take a little longer, but it's definitely worth it.
Leftover pizza and spaghetti are great leftovers. Fries and nachos and some sandwiches are terrible leftovers. I'll usually eat leftovers but my bf hates them.
I love leftovers, but my boyfriend hates them. If he had his way, I'd have cook him an entire meal every time he got hungry at 1 am. I can't believe people think that they're gross. Is it a
germ thing? Most foods taste just as good, if not better the next day.

This soup ends up being a good source of three blood pressure-lowering minerals since the milk adds calcium and the potatoes deliver a dose of potassium, as well as magnesium.
I usually love leftovers but it does depend on what it is. Some things just aren't good the next day.
1always! love my leftovers. the only things that don't keep well are things that have been deep fried.
2chancleta- toaster ovens do wonders to "revive" previously deep fried foods!
3i love going out to eat for the leftovers! usually i can get 2 or 3 meals out of them!

5the only thing i won't eat left over is kraft mac and cheese . . . that processed cheese taste is never as good the next day!
6As you may have guess I love them!

8Are you kidding me? They practically comprise my lunch every day.
9Me too crispy!
10I can't eat left-over chinese food... It kind of grosses me out. I soggy and ... well... it's just not the same. Those and french fries.
11Sometimes but not always.It depends on what it is.....
12Yes, as long as its the next day. Don't like to make science projects in the fridge.

15i usually eat leftovers from a restaurant, but never leftovers from food that i make myself.
16We always take our leftover fajitas and use them the next morning with our eggs.
17Red, sounds tasty!
Some leftovers are obviously better than others. But they are so great for a quick snack!
18I had no idea there were people who didn't. My family is far from poor, but throwing away food is still something you Do Not Do. If worst comes to worst, there's always the compost heap. Or the dogs.
19Throwing food away is a taboo in my family as well. If you can eat it, if it tastes decent, why not eat the leftovers?
20I love leftovers. My husband doesn't eat them, though.

22I usually cook extra just so I'll have leftovers.

24Grilling extra chicken breasts make for great leftovers because you can use them for fajitas, chicken salad, caesar salads, etc.
25Two things I won't eat the next day - pizza and french fries. Of course I hardly eat those to begin with anyways
26I love cold spaghetti the next day!

28I do lots of leftovers for lunch. It just depends on the food. Somethings are even better after they sit for a while.
(I was wanting an excuse to use that guy)
29Leftover pizza is the best, always order extra so there will be some for days.

32heaps of things taste better as leftovers!

My lunch almost every is some form of the previous night's dinner. Homemade lasagna is best on about day 2!
34leftovers might be my favorite food
35Usually. But anything with eggs? No. Yuck.
36I love leftovers - but only for certain foods. Some foods taste even better the next day and some... are just gross!
37i make a salad out of my leftovers everyday...
38nope i dont, but i do eat left over dessert so i voted for depends on the leftovers.
39I love leftovers

41I think this question has been ask before
42Not seafood, or fried items (they lose their crispiness and become chewy and soggy, yuck!)
43heck yeah! i save a ton of money too by eating leftovers for lunch every day!
44sometimes, but not always. I will eat leftover pasta.
45some leftovers are quite tasty.
46I usually like leftover, unless they're gross and mushy
I also only usually eat them if
they're a day old, not two days old.
47It depends on what it is. I would never eat takeaway leftovers the next day. But i would eat something I had cooked myself
48it really depends on the leftovers. But some foods taste better after an overnight stay in the fridge.
49Oh, I love leftovers! More than the original meal in a lot of cases! I usually eat them cold, no matter what they are, which I've been told is weird.
