AIBU or is saving curry a bit weird

[rOsie80]

Never known anyone to keep leftover takeaway for the next day until DP - always thought it was a one night treat. Think it's a bit odd - is it?

Curry is a billion times nicer the next day!!!

Left over takeaway is awesome!! We save curry, pizza and Chinese and argue about who gets it!!

Why?! If there's leftovers we always plate it up and put it in the fridge. Makes a nice lunch the day after - or a nice breakfast if I'm hungover

No weirder than saving any other leftovers.

No! It’s not weird it’s amazing. Just be meticulous about storing and reheating, particularly the rice.

Tbf curry will be better the next day. There’s a yummy Nigella one and she suggests making it the day before and reheating

YABU

Perfectly normal in this house

I hate wasting food. And leftover curry is the food of the gods.

I always eat most of my curry so wouldn’t have enough to keep it. But we often have leftover Chinese or pizza the following day. Not weird at all!

I always buy extra to have the next day

You're weird! Always save some for the next day!

I used to save some, with some rice ans a bombay potato or 2, and have it the next day. So good. Now I tend to eat it all the night it arrives!

Its weird that you think its weird tbh. Do you not keep any leftovers ever? Why would curry or takeaway be any different than those? Pizza is particularly delicious the next day!

Compulsory in this house. Great for Sunday brunch.

Perfectly normal. Not at all weird.

Fact

Curry is always best for breakfast the next day! Not the rice though, avoid the rice!

Leftover Chinese is food of the gods. Reheated fried rice and reheated plain noodles, with soy sauce - delicious.

And yes, I know that rice can be hazardous if reheated, but I am always careful about cooling it and reheating it really well, and I’ve never been ill.

This isn't a serious post is it?

No-one is so naive that they don't know pretty much everyone eats curry the next day are they?

Apologies OP if you are from a different culture or grew up in a different country but surely every English person knows this.

99% normal. YABU.

We just always eat it all the first day, no matter how much we buy 😳

Would you just chuck it in the bin, OP??? Criminal.

I make curry and freeze half. Surely that's no different?

But that's the whole point, curry for breakfast! Cold Chinese for breakfast is my favourite tho, the noodles go like jelly yum.
