Re: Leftovers ?
No more than 5 days max.
Everything is usually eaten before 3 days.
Wait, were you talking about food or posts?

Re: Leftovers ?
3-4 days max, unless its something like stew and I put it in the freezer. Then obviously it lasts for a whole lot longer.

Re: Leftovers ?
I work in nutrition, and a hospital is allowed to store food for 3 days after it is cooked. I figure if it is good enough for department of health standards, which are ridiculously strict, its good enough for me.

Re: Leftovers ?
FOREVER!
Seriously, if I'm not planning on eating it in the next 3-4 days and it's freezable, I'll throw it in the freezer. I love, love, love having leftovers in the freezer.
In the fridge, it depends what it is, but honestly I keep it until it looks or smells off. If it looks and smells good, I eat it.

Re: Leftovers ?
About a week if they last that long.
For me though, it depends on what is left over which determines if I'll eat it again.

Re: Leftovers ?
3-4 days max. My DH thinks they are good for at least 7 days, maybe more. I usually try to throw them out before that point so he doesn't eat them.

Re: Leftovers ?
Two days max for me and then it is in the garbage. Otherwise every little twinge of not feeling well I get will be blamed on the leftovers

I throw mine out after a good week. It makes me sad to think of the food I throw away, though.......

Re: Leftovers ?
I keep them until I clean out the fridge (shopping day). They don't get eaten past day 4. Things tend to get lost in there...
