Default Reheating food question


I have a Big Mac in the fridge that I didn't eat last night. Will it be
ok to reheat it in the microwave?

If it's ok, how long should I cook it for?

Cheers!

Nuke it for maybe 3 minutes at most. It should be as hot as it was
when you bought it.

It won't take 3 minutes - that would incinerate it. Try 30 seconds on
High or one minute on medium. If it's a little too hot to handle it's
ok. Take the lettuce off first!

Agreed 30 to 45 seconds at most depending on the power.

It wasn't OK last night, why should it be any different today?

Cooking is what you do to food.

Actually I've cooked a few brain cells in my lifetime. I think that's the
sort of cooking the OP's referring to.

Throw away the Big Mac, eat the carton, it will be better for you. If
you insist on eating both, don't worry, I've left Big Macs for 3 days
and eaten them cold with no after affects.

It will be awful. Shredded lettuce that has been warmed, cooled, then
microwaved is icky. That secret "Special Sauce" stuff will have
sogged up the bun. Pickles are like lettuce in that the texture is
both limp and tough.

I do realize that I'm answering a troll, but really I'm answering
everyone else who answered the troll with messages that treated that
old Big Mac as worth salvaging.

When I made my giant hamburger (2.2 pounds uncooked meat weight) I couldn't
eat it all. I put it in the fridge and attempted to finish it the next day.
The first thing I discovered was that I needed to change out the bun. It
was like a ****y diaper.

If I had a Big Mac in the fridge, I'd simply dare one of my idiot neighbors
to eat it.

Actually, if I woke up one morning and had a Big Mac in the fridge, I'd
shoot myself in the head.

But that was a patty worth salvaging. Those two little "Where's the
beef?" patties that they put on Big Macs...

I think the most important question is, WHY didnt you eat it last night, and
buy anew one today? That's what I would have done.

Plus, it has less fat and more fiber, with roughly the same taste.

And BSE is what exactly? You need to explain yourself instead of just

Or "BSD" as was explained to a group of Merkins in the 80's by my then
ProjMan, Mr. Patrick Murphy (I kid you not):

"Bovine Senile Dementia. It's when cows start failing their exams."

I would *love* confirmation of this story from a third party.
