    It is almost impossible for leftovers to taste just as good as when fresh though. You can get close but that’s it.

      There are a lot of foods that taste better and better with every time you reheat them. Especially a lot of stews: Grünkohl, Bigos, Lasagna, Chilli con Carne, Pörkölt, all kinds of Curry etc.

      Problem with reheating McDonald’s is, that it’s shit food to begin with. To get a decent menu out of McD leftovers you put them in the oven for 7 minutes, but make sure to replace them with a pizza 6 minutes before they’re done.

        Yeah mcdonalds fries need to be piping hot and fresh straight from the fryer. Reheating in the air-fryer even right after delivery changes the flavor (though you can get them back to ideal texture which is still a big improvement).

          McDonald’s fries just aren’t good anymore imho, period. There was a time when I would go just for the fries, even post beef tallow era. Not anymore.

      The other night I put some leftover drumsticks in the air fryer and they were better. Also fried rice, better when it’s sat overnight in the fridge first. Frying leftover potatoes with eggs. Leftovers are just ingredients.
