if i cant eat all my takeaway, i put it in the fridge as soon as possible....then usually eat it cold the next day, never reheat. How many days would be ok to eat., would you eat it say.....bought sunday night, in fridge, would you eat tues lunchtime. I didnt do this, but it still looked good. The birds had a great feast. thanks.....

Personally I don't like eating any left overs unless I have cooked the meal myself and know the ingredients were fresh to start with - Definitely wouldn't eat chinese take aways with out re-heating thoroughly and then would only eat the following day, the rest would go in the bin. I'm less fussy with my own prepared food and that of which I know and trust the source :-)

if i had chinese on sun night i would reheat it until piping hot on monday lunch time. then if there was still some left bin it. not often we get left overs though.

i read somewhere that reheating cooked rice is a bad idea.

The Chinese takeaways that we very occasionally have do not usually include rice so that excludes any concerns re that but I have been known to freeze, the same day, any leftovers which are freshly cooked meat and vegetables then they are carefully but thoroughly reheated.If not freezing the leftovers they would be eaten the next day or not at all.:-))

yes #6 i also kknow reheating rice is bad, thats why i dont have a problem eating it cold.(others do tho).NEVER been sick from it yet. but was curious to find out if others would eat after 2 days in fridge. what is the theory of raw cabbage being bad for us...?

so does that mean we're no longer supposed to eat coleslaw because raw cabbage is bad for us, or is coleslaw considered "cooked" cabbage because it has been marinaded in some sort of dressing?

it was some doctor that said it i read it somewhere, i dont know if its true but since then i cut my cabbage up then heavily salt it, let it stand for 20mins then rinse well and drain, i find it breaks it down a bit, but grrr i love raw celery, then again im alive so it cant be that bad for ya

I think that is a funny theory! Why would it be worse to re-heat (and so kill bacteria) than to eat cold (and so ingest those bacteria)????
