How long can you refridgerate leftover, plain, cheese pizza before it goes bad?

Question

i was just wondering becuase i had some leftover pizzas and needed to know how long i have until it goes bad

Answer 1

The real restaurant recommended time frame is 7 days counting the day you put it in the refrigerator!!! But, Pizza will be like eating cardboard after a couple of days. 2-3 at the most!!!!

Answer 2

I don't know how long you can keep it in the icebox, but I never keep it more than three days. Here is a tip on warming it in the microwave. Get a damp paper towel and place it over to pizza( this doesn't work well on the thin crust) It keeps the pizza soft and the cheese melts better.

Answer 3

I always toss left-overs out after three days. The pizza might be just fine, but why take the chance with your health?

Ordering another pizza is a lot cheaper than a trip to the hospital with food poisoning. . .and a lot more fun, too.

Answer 4

You might be able to keep it longer without getting sick, but in terms of it being a viable leftover, I'd say 3 days is pushing it.

Answer 5

I would say around 3 days...assuming it is covered in the fridge. If you are gonna' re-heat maybe 4 or 5 days since the microwave would kill possible harmful bacteria.

Answer 6

It starts to go bad the minute you put a bread product in the fridge, 2 days then dump it

Answer 7

To be on the safe side, consume within 24 hours of delivery or pick-up. After that, it starts to grow its own ecosystem.

Answer 8

I would throw it to the dog after three days.

Answer 9

I would do that for about three days.Then it's a paper weight.

Answer 10
