You Can't Reheat Some Foods Under Any Circumstances

Is it safe to microwave your food? Let's imagine you went out to dinner last night. Chances are you brought home the leftovers and they’re sitting in your fridge right now. But before you break out the styrofoam carton, pop it in the microwave, and chow down, you should know that there are some foods that actually turn poisonous when reheated!

No matter how tasty and healthy your freshly prepared meal is, it can lose its health benefits and even cause food poisoning if you reheat it in a microwave. Bright Side introduces to you a list of foods that you should eat as soon as they’re cooked.

SUMMARY:
- Whether they’re in a soup or stir-fry, reheating mushrooms in the microwave or on the stove is a big no-no. The change in composition can cause you to have an upset stomach, and they also lose their health benefits.
- Similarly to mushrooms, eggs are packed with protein that changes once it’s reheated. This can wreak havoc on your digestive system. In fact, eggs can become toxic when exposed to a microwave’s high temperatures.
- Even if the rice is cooked, boiling water won’t kill the bacteria. After the rice cools off to room temperature, its bacteria spores can multiply, and reheating it just keeps the bacteria alive. The longer it sat at room temperature, the more likely it is to contain harmful bacteria.
- When it’s time to reheat the breast milk, you should never heat it in a microwave because the uneven distribution of heat can create hot spots in the milk, which can seriously burn the poor baby who drinks it.
- Just like mushrooms, reheating chicken can change the food’s protein compounds and make you very sick. Unlike other meat (like beef), chicken contains a high amount of protein, which makes reheating it in the microwave a bad idea.
- If you place cooked potatoes directly into the fridge after cooking them, it’s probably safe to reheat them. However, if they sit out at room temperature for a while after they’re prepared, they’re more likely to develop a rare bacteria known as botulism.
- While nitrites are dangerous for adults, they’re incredibly dangerous for infants from 0 to 6 months. If they do ingest food with nitrites, they are more likely to develop “blue baby syndrome,” which can be fatal.
- Before you stick a leftover sandwich in the microwave, don’t forget to remove any toothpicks the restaurant may have stuck in there! Along with items with sharp tips, metal is a big no-no when it comes to microwave cooking.

Btw, which of these did you reheat before?

[marknewman]

I have reheated all of these, and have never died once.

[karolj.]

Im hispanic therefore I have been eating reheated rice for decades, never once have I been sick 😊

[saromnuon]

I'm Asian. I've reheated rice all my life never once had an issue .

[carolwhelan]

The fear mongering never ends. I’ve microwaved almost all of these things all my life.

[pg]

Every Microwave Frozen Food Company has rice and mushrooms and eggs in some of their meals. Those are already cooked meals you are reheating.

[albiesjourney]

Reheated rice can make you sick
Me : eating my reheated rice with chicken and watching 😬

[tjwatson]

I’ve reheated almost everything on here for decades. And never a problem 😡

[gilliankew]

I have loved in hong kong for 36 years and have spent all of that time eating fried rice made from leftover boiled rice.
Neither I nor any of my family have ever been sick!

[patamon]

I have been eating reheated rice for 20 years, multiple times a week and no problem what so ever

[alicehudson]

I wondered why I've been so tired lately, I obviously died many years ago from reheating all these foods!!!

[deah]

I have reheated rice a hundred times and nothing ever happened. It was fine..

[bettysteeg]

This is really something! I have reheated in microwave & eaten practically everything in this video: eggs, rice, potatoes, spinach, chicken. Have NEVER had a problem my whole life & Iam 80! Of course early on there were no microwaves but have had one since they came out & have found it wonderful to be able to reheat dinner on a plate instead of using various pots & pans. What a convenience! One thing is I do refrigerate leftovers so have always been careful with food but as stated before have never been limited as to what can be reheated so this video is quite a surprise. 🤔

[VideoMatoran]

On a serious note, half of these are stuff I regularly reheat in a microwave, bit I never fell sick.

[glamp]

I’ve done every single one of these for 56 years!

[markmarshall]

Nonsense. Most foods in restaurants are reheated. Half the population would have been hospitalized by now.

[marpop]

I've reheated rice, chicken, potatoes, celery and spinach in my microwave. The only problem I ever had was in reheating rice more than once. It caused some uncomfortable bloating. So far made it to 70 years with not intention of changing my reheating habits.

[gwanma]

Basically I hear this video saying to NOT use the microwave.

[DerwinDaDestroyer]

I reheated my love life with my ex... and felt sick soon after

[snarky]

So according to you, the entire frozen food/tv dinner industry has to shut down. I didn't realize they had been killing millions of people every year that reheat them.
