My girlfriend and I went to Mongolian barbecue last night and as you know they give you raw meat to choose from and cook it on a open grill. My girlfriend had some terrible dreams last night and I had a little bit of trouble sleeping. Im thinking that the food may have been undercooked. I also heard cold pizza before bed can cause bad dreams and I wasn't sure if that was true.

if it did, don't you think some people would purposely eat undercooked meat and pizza just to experience the bad dreams? some people are twisted like that.

Cold pizza shouldn't cause bad dreams.
Whether you have bad dreams or good ones depends on your day. Your body uses REM sleep to process the day's events. If you have something that wakes you up - such as indigestion - then you remember the dreams you've had.
But there's no real difference between cold pizza and warm pizza. When it hits your stomach, it's at body temperature within a few seconds.
Now, if the pizza was hot at 7 PM and it's 3 AM when you eat it, it having sat out at room temperature all that time, yeah, it could have problems. But if you refrigerated the pizza at 8 PM, and ate *cold* pizza, it should still be wholesome.

Contaminated undercooked Mongolian BBQ will give you a tummy ache, but cold pizza before bed? Half of all American college students live on a diet of whatever is left for dinner, so no.

eating anything too close to bed time has been known to cause bad dreams in some people so it's not just pizze or undercooked meat.

this is not true, just a coincidence that you both had bad dreams
