good food left to rot

Good food left to rot. 
That's a way to say "leftovers"
and feel guiltier, I guess. 

But 

how good was that food, 
if it didn't tempt us
to ingest?

All cold and bowled 
and clumped and 
congealed, sitting 

in the fridge, what's left 
of a meal to serve as 
another meal, 
perchance. Or, you know 

we could have hot dogs 
and dance
