Heh. Not me. I don't usually accept leftovers to take home unless
they're really pressed on me. I don't eat food that's been sitting out
for more than an hour or two (it's a personal squick; I'm not saying
anyone else is wrong to do it), and James isn't a big fan of leftovers,
so if I take food home, it's more likely to get tossed than eaten, and I
dislike wasting food. For much the same reason, I do try to send
leftovers home with guests, especially if they brought the food in the
first place, because I assume if they brought it, it's something they
like, and they can take it home in their own containers.

I do keep a supply of disposable take-away containers, to make things
easier.
