I, poostuck hereby declate the binning of half a tub of fried rice.

Some noodles.

Mushrooms

Almost a full tray of barbecue spare ribs.

Prawn crackers.

And one, lone chicken ball.

Usually they would be kept and squabbled over the following morning for breakfast, but no more. From this day forth they shall be binned in the interests of my ever expanding arse.

YAabsolutelyBU! That (apart from the rank ribs) would have made a delicious lunch. Reporting you to the Waste Police.

Wow, I'd hate to waste that much food. Surely your entire family isn't on a watching their weight?

Exercise some self control woman Grin

Wasteful!

YABU - you should be ashamed of yourself for wasting food.

I had prawn crackers for breakfast.

I've never known anyone to (knowingly) get ill from rice. Maybe it's more risky than noodles but I don't think the risk is actually very high.

I want chinese now.

If you didnt want it today, you def should have put it in the freezer!

Next time just don't buy a takeaway. It makes me Sad to think of all that lovely chinese food sitting in a bin. If its in the interest of your ever expanding arse then surely its better just to eat something less calorific?

Or next time, put a post on MN
"Free leftover chinese in x area" Grin

This very morning I ate some of last nights leftover rice which had been left out on the kitchen side all night long. Was not reheated or refridgerated.
I have always done this and also don't know of a single person who has had food poisoning from rice. Not saying it doesn't happen, just that it hasn't happened to me and I never realised it wasn't 'safe'.
I do have a cast iron stomach though...

Oh, and re the chinese food, I think YANBU. Who wants microwaved mushrooms and prawn crackers??

TastesLikePanda · 11/11/2012 12:36

Left... Over... Chinese?

Does not compute. We never have leftovers. am fat

But to answet your question - I would have saved it. And reheated it thouroughly for lunch - or not so thoroughly next time your poo is stuck...

Left over breakfast is the best.

I love morning pizza.

Youcanringmybell · 11/11/2012 12:44

YASNBU- I cannot STOMACH leftovers the next day. I cannot eat the samething two days in arow. I am of the opinion that most takeaway has probably been re heated before anyway so would never re-heat again.

leftover Chinese for breakfast?
Lunch. Lunch is for leftovers.
