Leftover lasagne from New Year's Eve that has been in the fridge since then.

Would you eat it today?

Meat lasagne - no.
Vegetable lasagne - yes, provided it has been in the fridge the whole time.

No.
And I'm in Italy where dh, a chef, regales me joyously about how restaurants make one batch of sauce a month and just top it up every so often.

No. I wouldn't risk it. Food poisoning is horrible and best avoided.

Yes. Bet the lasagne you buy in supermarkets has more than a 5 day shelf life.

Yes, of course it has. It’s been prepared and packaged under controlled conditions in a factory so that it lasts longer.

A homemade lasagne isn’t the same at all.

I always limit to 3 days, 2 for chicken, but I err on the side of caution having had terrible food poisoning in the past.

Next time freeze the leftovers.
