Whilst knocking about my humble abode this evening my eyes lighted (lit? dunno… someone will be along shortly, I’m sure) upon a Pp J*hns pizza box resting lazily on the Dining Room table (amongst many other things… What’s this? a telephone bill from 1999…that’s another story… Child support demand WTF? ). Anyway, upon inspecting said pizza box I determine that this order was placed at 6:47pm on 14-Oct and was for what the pizza Gods refer to as “The Works”. I might add that “[My] pizza experience [was] managed by DANIEL”.
My curiousity aroused I opened said box only to discover not 1 not 2 but 3! unconsumed pizza slices languishing there with the unconsumed garlic butter sauce. Faced with this moral question (couldn’t spell dilema [sp?]) of "don’t waste your money!) I daintily consumed not 1 but 2! sliced of the earlier described pizza slices (whilst making full use of the remaining dipping sauce). I may I say it was quite tasty… I even nuked the second slice to melt the cheese!
I have only just now realised that today is the 17-Oct.
So my question to you, the teeming millions, (I was getting to it… You ever listen to Talk Radio? Fine Then!)… what is the “point of no consumption” of food you haven’t seen fit to toss in the rubbish where it belongs, but rather have consumed it instead. And lived to regret it?
Elvis is dead, and I don’t feel so good myself.
I was going to say that I’ve eaten pizza that’s sat out overnight, but you go too far. Three-day old, unrefrigerated pizza? But you suffered no ill effects, so more power to you!!
Well my 3 year old kid found a half eaten pizza underneath the sofa cushion and ate it before I had a chance to realize what was going on. When I saw him with the pizza at first I thought one of his brothers must have gotten it for him from the refrigerator but then after thinking about it for a while I realized that we haven’t had pizza for a while. So I asked my son “show dady where you got the pizza”
He then proceeds to the sofa lifting up one of the cushions. That of course is when I about shit my pants.
Pizza is good until it turns green…unless you have green peppers on your pizza. In that case you’re on your own.
Wait a minute… sometimes pizza just dries out and never turns green. in that case don’t eat green pizza or pizza that’s dried out.
Wait again… sometimes the mold can be more black than green. In that case don’t eat green or black pizza or pizza that’s dried out.
Wait once more… I was just thinking… maybe you better not eat pizza you find just laying around.
Gross gross gross, you ate moldy cheese. Even if you couldn’t see the mold, it was there.
I wouldn’t eat pizza if it had been out for more than 8-10 hours. I wouldn’t eat refrigerated pizza if it was older than 3-4 days. You can freeze pizza in those gallon-sized plastic bags, you know.
SHAKES, this was brilliant! I could just about see the “Oh shit!” look on your face as the location of the found pizza became apparent.
As to the OP, I have eaten pizza that has set out all night. I like my pizza better when it has aged a bit. Usually I remember to put it in the fridge but if not I’ll still eat it anyway. Never experienced any ill effects.
As to eating moldy cheese: big whoop. Some people (not me) even like it better that way. Look at it this way, your already eating really, really aged milk. What’s a little more aging on top of that?
I kept a large pizza from Pzz Ppln out for going on a week before I finished it. Mmmm… crunchy dried out garlicky goodness. This was when I lived in the dorm and didn’t have a refrigerator. hving moved into the early 20th century, I’d say that as long as it doesn’t run away, it’s fair game. we’re talking about pizza here, food of the gods.
I don’t get this food under the sofa/sofa cushion thing. To keep food for ready consumption, you keep it under the ** bed **.
Oh, the blue stuff in bleu cheese is only mold? Cool! I thought it might have been something bad!
