17.10 That which is state, tasteless, putrid, rotten, refuse and impure, is the food liked by the Tamasic.

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaEnglish

Food prepared more than three hours before being eaten, food that is tasteless, decomposed and putrid, and food consisting of remnants and untouchable things is dear to those in the mode of darkness.
