it isn't uncommon here for us to leave out a bowl of melon
or other fruit so it will get closer to room temperature before
eating and i've microwaved some to warm it up a bit. i also do
that with salads here or there if i don't want a cold meal.

i'm the opposite with cheeses, i don't often like them melted
or warmed up nearly as much as i like them cooler or cold. warmed
up cheese seems to lose almost all the flavor and texture i like.
which is perhaps why i like cold pizza or other similar dishes
more than i like them hot.
