General Yeager doesn’t care much for my petrie dishes in the refridgerator. 
He really didn’t care for the one on the stove. I guess that hot cereal had no preservatives. It grew mold within 15 hours.
Seriously, I always take left-overs if we go out to dinner or lunch. And then there are times that I don’t get around to eating them later.
And they sit.
I call them my biology experiments.
General Yeager calls them garbage for the wild animals.
Often he’ll throw the food off the back deck, bang on the railing, and deer will come running to see what goodie has been thrown out.
It amazes me that something that would give us tummy trouble like mold doesn’t bother them at all.
One time I threw some food over the railing – didn’t realize the deer were already there.
They ducked and went running.
Oops.
They eventually drifted back in when they figured it was safe – they checked my hands – empty = I looked like I was done throwing.
Our cat, every time I come outside with a container, looks hopeful. Then she comes to her senses and realizes she doesn’t like our food. She only likes the juice from the fish. Seriously, she’ll lick all around the salmon, and won’t eat the leftover little pieces.
The latest petrie dish in the fridge was a raw foods dolmas – veggies in a raw grape leaf. That one is taking a while to decompose.
It’s on day 7 and I’m afraid to look in. I think I’ll wait till it starts outgrowing its container. and then put on thick rubber gloves and a mask and take it to the backside of the property for the bear.
It keeps the bear from wanting to come any closer to the house. And that’s a good thing.
