Who does that!!
I'm away with friends and last night we had curry and pizza delivered. Ordered too much and quite a lot was left.
I've just got up and was thinking a slice of cold pizza would go down well with this hangover ....... to discover it is all IN THE BIN. Shock

LTB(friends) immediately.

This is pure abuse. I feel your pain and horror.

Oysterbabe · 19/12/2015 09:35

Richmond sausages?! This thread just keeps throwing up fresh hell.

BrandNewAndImproved · 19/12/2015 09:38

I would eat the pizza for breakfast with mayonnaise and the curry for lunch with bread and butter instead of the rice.

What weirdos you have as friends!

Orda1 · 19/12/2015 09:39

Bunch of weirdos - left over pizza is the best!

Left over curry is always frozen for another meal - there always loads!

ICanSeeForMiles · 19/12/2015 09:41

I love Richmond sausages Grin

But leftover pizza? Boke. Can't even entertain the thought of cold curry without my stomach turning.

WitchWay · 19/12/2015 09:42

Curry is much better the next day. Even the rice can be reheated as long as it's been chilled quickly the night before.

Recently on a girls' weekend I made curry for the first night & two of us had the leftovers for breakfast - mmm

MadHattersWineParty · 19/12/2015 09:45

I've ALWAYS eaten leftover takeaway, I'll happily freeze curry etc for future use (not the rice)

Cold pizza the next day is the food of the gods.

Am not dead. I thought it was normal!

OP I'm devastated on your behalf.

Charley50 · 19/12/2015 09:46

Yep it's a Ltb from me. Best breakfast is naan bread dipped in heated up curry from the night before - not cold curry though it's gotta be heated up.

Bunbaker · 19/12/2015 09:50

"Even the rice can be reheated as long as it's been chilled quickly the night before."

But you don't know whether it has been cooked and then reheated at the takeaway. I wouldn't risk it with rice. I would only do that with freshly boiled rice.

Bakeoffcake · 19/12/2015 09:56

I've got to 50 and never eaten cold take away. We always throw it out if not eaten.

A bacon sarnie is the best thing for a hangover!

gobbynorthernbird · 19/12/2015 10:00

It's all alright, you're just having a nightmare. Shortly you will wake up and have cold pizza for breakfast.

Skullyton · 19/12/2015 10:02

i keep packets of uncle bens microwave rice to eat with leftovers, i cant bring myself to reheat the rice!

These people are heathens!

MidniteScribbler · 19/12/2015 10:05

WTAF? I'm waiting for my dinner pizza to be delivered. I shall eat a slice, maybe two. The rest will be delicious tomorrow morning. Anyone that throws out pizza the night it is delivered needs to be burnt in a pit of boiling tomato soup.

Pedestriana · 19/12/2015 10:06

I have eaten reheated rice in the past, but wouldn't change it now. Anything else is fair game though.

BooyakaTurkeyisMassive · 19/12/2015 10:12

Skittles and prosecco sounds like a lovely breakfast. But who the fuck puts Skittles in the fridge?? These people have issues.

MrsGentlyBenevolent · 19/12/2015 10:31

Cold pizza is amazing - however my partner strongly disagrees. When we order a big deal from Dominos, the garlic pizza usually gets reheated for lunch the next day (the fussy git). I only like cold curry if I've cooked it myself, takeaway curries taste a bit off the next day to me.

No reheating rice? I use cold cooked rice all the time for frying - no better way to make home egg fried rice! Still alive with no ill effects.

Now a bacon sarnie with a hangover - that sounds like my sort of nightmare. All that stinky bacon cooking, grease and fat everywhere, yuck yuck yuck. Think I'd rather knaw on my own foot.....

cariadlet · 19/12/2015 10:51

You can't beat cold curry for breakfast the morning after a takeaway. I don't reheat anything, because of the dangers from reheated rice (and cos I'm too lazy and impatient), so if we do have leftovers I make sure I mix the sauce and rice up before I go to bed. The sauce keeps the rice nice for the next day - otherwise it can go dry and horrible.

ObsidianBlackbirdMcNight · 19/12/2015 10:54

I'm so sad for you Sad

ObsidianBlackbirdMcNight · 19/12/2015 10:55

Booyaka skittles flavoured vodka I assume, not the sweets!

sharonthewaspandthewineywall · 19/12/2015 10:55

I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to associate with these people any more.

Pidapie · 19/12/2015 15:21

Doom! Fridge cold pizza is delicious!

Artandco · 19/12/2015 15:28

I would bin. Takeaway food has already been reheated often at the restaurant so I wouldn't reheat again.

Ta1kinPeace · 19/12/2015 15:31

Cold pizza is yummy.

Putting ANY food in the bin is a sin.
