He's not trolling, my family is similar. Except we don't let it spoil, my dad will freeze the leftovers until they are freezer burned before he throws them out.
why didn't you eat it, op?
>>8290979
you should have cut it up into slices if you wanted it to be eaten
white meat is only good
A: Slathered in gravy
B: On sandwiches (slathered in gravy is optional)

Complete fucking opposite with my family.
Once me and my Grandma are done cooking, they all storm in like a gaggle of starving African children and only leave scraps for me. Then the scraps I didnt touch are fucking plated up and taken home with them.
