Well, I am what you might call a nosher. Cold green beans out of the
refrigerator might look great in the morning. Just yesterday, some
leftover brussels sprouts and a half a baked potato came in handy
with leftover rib roast. I guess, to me it's often something that
I can reheat a little leftover something for a quick snack.

If it's something that wouldn't reheat well and I don't like leftover
cold, I'd toss it.
