Talk:Leftovers

think "doggy bag" has just fallen out of favor with waitstaff, or rather with the makers of policies, except at franchises where they have company-mandated minimum flair and use too much first-person plural: "And will we be needing a doggy bag tonight?" But everyone still knows what one is, I think. No citations for any of that, of course, which is a shame. If a grant-funded study of restaurant protocols needs researchers, I'm up for that.
22: 699:, the exact opposite is true: not taking food home from a restaurant seems to be the more shameful experience. Personally, I've never even heard of taking leftovers home as being a "shameful" and "embarrassing" act until just now. If someone is going to add it back in, it's their prerogative, but at least try to make it sound like less of just some personal quirk. 84: 642:, and I saw that there are other articles taking the form "(whatever) recycling". I think that "leftovers" is a special name for "food recycling", but this article is the same concept. I put this article in that category. I thought I would make a note here, because it seems strange to call leftovers as "recycled food", but I think it fits. 74: 53: 413:; And where's the thing about 'doggie-bags' going out of style, at least here in the US? In Southern California, I hear 'Doggie Bag' about as often as I hear anything else... I admit, that bit is OR, but I 'know' it to be true, and it's a start to try to find something that proves it one way or another. 559:
What about flavor degradation? I'm curious why roast turkey or beef aren't just dryer the day after, they get odd tastes that get worse over time. I suppose it has something to do with components of the food breaking down in the cooking process, which then oxidize in the air. This should imply that

We just moved to South Jersey, and have been hearing "Do you want that wrapped?" a lot. This confused us a little until we realized that still meant it was going to go in a pizza box or styrofoam clamshell or whatever, same as back in Kansas where it would have been "Do you want a box for that?" I

Added a new section that will provide the article with more information in general about leftovers. The article as a whole was missing a general view of leftovers and only contained specifics. Leftover portions provide a worldwide view on leftover consumption as well as a depiction of societal

Hence why I was making it a request. When I am in my full capacities I do not feel up to the task of doing anything but minor organizational edits to minor Wiki articles - and when I posted that I was about three quarters asleep and fading fast. Thanks for the 'cute' comment, I

2 things. A fairly common tradition down here in Australia at least is for a large Christmas lunch, with the leftovers being served up for dinner. Secondly, Shepards pie is tradionally made with leftover roast lamb

It seems to be standard practice for nice restaurants to wrap leftovers in foil shaped like a swan. How is this not mentioned? Give me time and i'll add it, because I'm pretty sure it's a notable practice.—

I'm not sure you should define "ort" as leftover food specifically, as opposed to a remnant of something in general. I usually run into the term in relation to thread scraps.

I'm not so sure about that "shameful" bit. It supposedly had a source pointing to a book, but it wasn't specific and the title didn't seem to imply much. On top of that,

I've been living in Northern California for almost 11 years and haven't heard "doggy bag" once. So I'd like to see some information one way or the other. --

I agree that 'ort' is used with frequency in crosswords. I see 'a bit' listed in the definition, but I always see it clued to food.
679: 411:
Just to stick a note in here - I understand that most of this is true. I understand it to be true. But... erm... sources? : -->
