having had a stupidly long day at work I'm too knackered to cook so have decided to play russian roullete and reheat saturday night's left over chinese takeaway

it ranks below a service station sweaty meat pie - it's truly awful but I'm too hungry to care

what else is worse reheated?

Depends how its reheated.

Last nights pizza microwaved, bleak.

Ovened, not so bad.

Isn't there some sort of fundamental issue with re-heating rice?

All exits no waiting? The spread is at 4-8 hours...

you've got to really zap it, some of it doesn't reheat and stuff lurks in it which will make you feel tom & dick

US style Chinese takeaway (except eggrolls)

It always seems like a good idea to get the 2 litre portion of shrimp fried rice until day 2.

Oh - and if done in the Microwave - the sh!t explodes

doner kebab.

White and furry in the morning and does a good visual reminder of the insides of your arteries. Lovely.

I knew a soon as I saw the thread title that it would be Chinese food - it really doesn't work being reheated.

Chinese re-heated in an oven is lovely!!! It's how you re-heat that's the issue.

Potatoes of any form don't seem to microwave or reheat very well. You lose all the crisp with roasties and get a nasty skin on mash. Chips just go osggy in the mircowave or solid in the oven.
