Good people, I seek guidance. I made a large batch of chicken curry on Saturday night, proceeded to eat what I thought was a generous helping then refrigerated the remnants. It's now Monday and the curry is still lurking in the fridge. Is it too late to freeze what's left or do I have to have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner for the next 24 hours? I thank you.

Where do you live? I need something for lunch.
I found this on a food hygiene website that suggests it would be ok
Freeze or discard leftovers after four days.
As you are only 1.5 days later, and it was in fridge, should be ok.

Thank you, I decided to have a currified lunch and have frozen the remainder. To infinity and beyond!
To infinity indeed! I salute you, WeAreBongo - person after my own heart. I've not died yet, so lets march together into the wasteland....

On a slightly saner note, I've recently blanched and frozen all the excess veg in my fridge in an experiment to see if we can waste less stuff.

The stew, or 'Scouse', I cooked a month ago and defrosted last night hasn't killed us yet. I had similar worries to your initial ones in that I didn't get round to freezing it for two days. We're not sick yet though, and it was delicious, even more so than if we'd eaten it fresh according to my hubby. So there it is.
