How long before you'll throw out leftover pizza?

[abcdefz]

We sometimes get pizza on Fridays at work, ordering extra so there are leftovers to nosh on if guys are working late, working on the weekend,
or whatever.

I kind of feel like, you know, if it's Wednesday and there's still some left over, it's probably for the greater good that it gets tossed out.
But I don't, because I've been chided for it (even though it rarely seems to be eaten past Tuesday). But I have seen a slice or two
get microwaved and eaten for breakfast on Thursdays, so, ugh. Okay. None of my business.

Yes, it does get refrigerated.

Is it just me? I mean, it's not like it's moldy or anything, but...

At what point does leftover pizza start seeming a little... elderly to you?

1 day old pizza is ok with me but not more

[abcdefz]

That seems a little unforgiving. :D

[Lyman Zerga]

rewarmed pizza tastes like shit but it's still too good for the trashcan

[Yeti]

Speaking of trashcans. People actually leave leftover pizza on the top of trashcans for the homeless.

I find this to be a very strange practice.

no, they leave it there just to piss off a-z

[abcdefz]

I'll give homeless people leftovers, but I wouldn't just leave leftovers lying around. That seems kind of gross and... I dunno. "I'll feed you,
but I won't interact with you."

[Loppfessor]

I'll say 2 days tops....after that it just don't taste the same. Day old is the best though

we only have like one 'real' homless person in my small town and he isnt skinny at all

im sure they dont give a fuck. sure as hell beats actually having to pick through the garbage for their meal.

[abcdefz]

I'm sure that homeless people have enough degrading experiences per day already.

Just a hunch.

it's not in the garbage, it's on top of the garbage

I say about three days and that stuff should be gone. Four is do-able but five is really pushing it...

That sounds about right.

Once it's on the third day... well, that's just laziness. Too lazy to make (or order) new food; too lazy (or cheap) to just throw that shit out.

Three days is definitely past the "best by" date: let's put it that way.

[Schmeltz]

I don't think I've ever had leftover pizza sit around for longer than a day. Too much weed gets smoked around here for that to happen.

[jabumbo]

i don't understand how leftover pizza can even last that long


i've never had any last past the next day. it's a sin to not eat all of the leftover pizza immediately

[TurdBerglar]

i never been in a situation where pizza has lasted more than 24 hours :confused:

[abcdefz]

I'm more afraid of vodka going bad than pizza.
