Stuff You Can't Do

You can't re-heat Chinese food or french fries.

I'll go for can't reheat french fries in a microwave, but I've done it successfully in the oven, but who reheats in the oven any more?

I reheat chinese all the time. It gets hot and tasty.

Okay, the General Tso's gets all funny, but if you choose something without breading, it works a lot better. Kung Pao Chicken is a good reheat, so are all the soups.

So first I was all like 'dude, there's a clip of that skit.' Then I was all like "Oh, dwellar names IRL!'

This really will be my year. I feel it in my bones!

If something has breading, putting it in a dry frying pan works well. Crisps up the breading and heats it up well.

I prefer to do the pizza slices in the oven. Almost like fresh that way.
