Does anyone else like different foods the day after they're made rather than freshly made?

I don't like ALL foods like this, but I have some that I think taste better as leftovers rather than just made.

Such as:
Pizza
Chicken Wings
Chili
My grandma's home-made Mac N Cheese(Although it's DELICIOUS fresh too)

And that's all I can think of right now. :p

I think stew is better the next day. Sometimes pizza is too.

I love leftover Pizza Hut pan pizza! It's good cold with orange juice for breakfast. Also, cold dressing from Christmas. My mom makes the best dressing.

Sometimes things are better as leftovers when the spices and flavors have had more time to "stew" (for lack of a better term). Like spaghetti sauce... chili...

As a rule, I usually don't care much for leftovers. But one thing I love is when my mom would take the leftover turkey and stuffing from Thanksgiving and make it into a casserole... yum!

I don't really like things when they're leftover except for pasta because we heat it in the microwave with margarine which makes it really good. lol

I agree that soup and stew is much better the next day:) I also prefer leftover COLD pizza and think coleslaw is much better the next day too.

Pasta and tomato sauce with butter in the mic the next day is the best! Also no one said Cole Slaw I love cole Slaw the next day gives it time to absorb all the sauce YUMMMMMMY!!!!

Thanksgiving Turkey tastes pretty darn good the day after Thanksgiving, eating it cold on a sandwich.... but I don't know if it tastes better that way.

Sheesh, I LIVE on leftovers lol! I usually end up grabbing whatever my mom cooks on the weekend to have for lunches and stuff during the week.

I love leftovers :D
