Question: What is considered Leftovers (food)!? Reheated , time after last eat!? You tell me!? Need to have your answers!? !?
My Mother in Law brought back pizza in box from her late dinner at a pizza place around (10:00) after her last bite was around 9:20!. I had already eat dinner for that day!. Having the munchies and ate some!. Is that considered to be a left over!?
The next day 15yr old Niece was eating my dinner from three days ago!. I said I never eat leftovers!. And she said, yes you did yesterday when you ate Kims (mother-in-law) pizza!.
Run down, got into argument and we post on yahoo answers!.
Tell me if eating the pizza was considered a leftover!. Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
It is my opinion that this would be considered leftovers!. I think this, because it was not finished, put into a leftover's box, taken home in the car, and a little bit later eaten again!.
also you had all ready had dinner, and this was your late night snack, making it a new meal!. Please consider this!.

Well techinally, its your mother-in-law's leftovers, which you ate, so really you did eat leftovers!. However, i agree with the contributer above, i consider leftovers as food that has been left until the next day!. So its all down to each person!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Although looking at the term literally "leftovers" it would seem to be!. But I usually consider leftovers to be from the previous day so I would say it wouldn't be leftovers!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I consider leftovers to be whatever is left over from a previous meal!. Whether the meal was hours or days ago, it's still leftovers!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If it aint eaten it's a leftover!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
