Default To compost or not?

In article ,
says...

We recently had an ammount of cooked green veg, cabbage etc
left over from a dinner party.I wanted to put it on the compost
heap, but, swmbo said that you can not compost cooked food.


smbo is wrong. Cooked food composts just as well as when it was raw.

Some people who don't know much about rats appetites, mistakenly
think cooked food is more likely to attract rats to the compost heap,
than the same food raw.
