Why is it that leftovers are sometimes better than the initial product???
Without fail, chili, spaghetti, and Chinese takeout taste better to me the 2nd time 'round. You'd think that wouldn't be the case.
With chili, I like the leftovers so much more that I'm seriously considering skipping the initial meal next time and storing it for the next day. I generally serve chili leftovers on top of white rice, and it's just so much more tasty that way. With spaghetti, perhaps something is happening when the sauce and noodles are packaged together to refrigerate overnight. The same affect might explain the Chinese food. It must be the sesame chicken, lo mein, and shrimp fried rice blending flavors when all thrown in the same container. Whatever is going on, it's delicious.
Does anyone else experience the same phenomenon?
