Hot Foods Cold, or Cold Foods Hot?

[Prof. Kendra Givens]

As I sit here eating and loving my leftover pizza cold, I have to wonder - am I weird? Does anyone else love cold pizza? Are there other foods that you love to eat at temperatures they're not supposed to be served at? Maybe you like cold chicken noodle soup or warm peanut butter and jelly? Give us your ideas below!

I don't think its that I like to eat foods at temperatures they aren't supposed to be served at, I think it is more convenient. I do like to eat cold pizza, but I think its because it doesn't taste the same to me when it is reheated. I will also eat my lunches cold at work, if am hungry and I don't want to wait in the line for the microwave.

I don't think that I like them at different temperatures. I think that I like doing weird things with food. Like, last night, I had rice and I put it in my ketchup. And I also put the rice on my hamburger. I like putting blueberries in my yogurt.

I began drinking cold coffee before it was cool I really don't Ike super hot foods or liquid, and starting looking for ways to cool down coffee so I could drink. My Mocha Lattes are delish!

If a food is really hot, I'm looking for something to add, like a cold condiment. I add the one I think will work best.

I'm definitely more of a 'hot foods cold' type of person, though I will say that what I really am is a lazy heater of foods, lol. As much as there are some things I genuinely do love cold (leftover turkey from the fridge over Thanksgiving is always such a 'yes-please!' for me), often times the reason I eat things at room temperature or less is because I just don't care enough to take the time to warm it up. I've been stared at with crazy-eyes by many an onlooker who's seen me open up a can of soup and start enjoying. 'Far as I'm concerned, it's already been cooked, but try to tell that to some people and they're like, No, Sin. No. I find most things just about as delicious either way, though there are of course many exceptions ... Like mashed potatoes! Not my favorite cold, haha.

Not too long ago I came in possession of a flourless chocolate cake, taken out from a restaurant. The instructions were to heat, slice, and serve. But I ended up eating the first few slices cold from the fridge and they were still delicious - tasting more fudgy than cake-like! Eventually I did get around to heating a slice as per the instructions, and that tasted more like a proper cake dessert (and also delicious)... but I definitely enjoyed the cold slices too!

Put me in the "hot foods cold" camp. Sometimes it is out of convenience, as someone said, but mostly I do prefer them that way if I have leftovers.

Pizza was mentioned many times, but I also like cold, day old fries, especially if I made them. I have a penchant for cold rice noodles as well. Most meats, like pork, that should be served at least warm, I prefer cold. Beef from a broth is best in a salad!

Though I will eat cold pizza, I am one who likes things as they 'should' be. If the dish is meant to be cold, I want it cold. But if it's meant to be hot, I want it molten. That said, I do enjoy cold fried chicken and I have been known to roast chicken with grapes (yummy really). I also don't mind if a dish has a contrast of temperatures, like a warm tomato bisque with cool, sweet fennel sorbet. I have made coffee ice cream, too, so there is that

I don't like cold pizza, but sometimes I'll have 2 slices of bread heated in the microwave. I put the heated bread side by side on a plate then add either butter or peanut butter. I eat it like that without putting them together. I also once in a while like peanut butter and banana sandwich.
