Lasanga.... so good

Does anyone else think that pizza and mac n' cheese taste better when microwaved the day after it's made?
Certain foods just taste better later on.

screw microwaved, cold pizza the day after FTW!

Lasagna and pizza.

Actually, pretty much everything that involves pasta and *doesn't* have a cream sauce tastes better reheated.

Probably many other things, too, but those were the first that sprang to mind =)

Turkey.

So much turkey.

Agreed. After the initial nausea of Christmas has passed, the couple of days after it are filled with some of the best sandwiches kwown to mankind.

For me, very few things are better. Mostly spaghetti, but only if it has sauce.

Back home, friday nights used to be Pizza Nights. I used to love waking up on saturday morning, popping some leftover slices in the toaster oven, and eating pizza for breakfast.

Pizza tastes about as good as leftovers. Same goes for turkey and meatloaf. Fries and anything with lettuce are just horrible though.

A recommendation for the fries (or anything fried really) is to heat them up in the oven, or toaster oven if you have one, they will generally stay crispier than in a microwave. This does take longer though, so it's up to you.

Definitely oven or toaster oven for leftovers. I like my pizza crispy, baking/toasting it the next day makes it taste better to me; I sometimes add a little pepper or some garlic salt.

No, Burgers and Pizza's taste like crap if they aren't fresh. Or at least that's my opinion.

As far as I am concerned all food is best when its fresh unless its suppose to be kept in the fridge before its eaten.

The oven or toaster oven is the way to go. Twice baked pizza is awesome. I recommend never using a microwave on something unless it was made to be microwaved. If the packaging gives you an out, take it. Like Red Baron's french bread pizza, it says you can microwave it or put it in the oven; the oven is a given.

I love cold meat, especially chicken or turkey.
Also Pancakes and the like...

And of course, every kind of soup, stew, or chili.
We make chili in the biggest pot we can find and eat nothing but for a week ;-)
I love it!
