Overview

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Warmed-over flavor is an unpleasant flavor which develops in cooked meat which is subsequently refrigerated prior to reheating. As cooking and subsequent refrigeration is the case with most convenience foods containing meat, it is a significant challenge to the processed food industry. The flavor is variously described as rancid, stale, like cardboard, and even compared to damp dog hair. Warmed-over flavor is caused by the oxidative decomposition of lipids (fatty substances) in the meat into chemicals which have a displeasing taste or odor. This decomposition process begins after cooking or processing and is aided by the release of naturally occurring iron in the meat.
