Turkey, stuffing and gravy are even better the day after Thanksgiving. To be safe, get everything into the fridge within two hours of eating, says Kathy Bernard of the USDA meat and poultry hotline. Fruit pies with no dairy can stay out but may get moldy. After four days, use, freeze or toss. New products we like, which go straight from fridge to microwave:

  • Tupperware’s Heat N Serve line has a valve for perfect reheating. Its Stuffables line expands to fit odd-shaped foods like a turkey leg.

  • OSO Fresh bowls, with antibacterial silver particles, claim to keep food fresher four times longer.

  • Rubbermaid Premiers stack neatly and securely.
