  3. The cheese was too rotten to be eaten.
  4. She cooks better than me/I do.
  5. She is a better cook than me/ I am.
  6. The meal was so great I ate everything that was on the plate.

They are all fine for me, too, though the 'it' of #2 sounds redundant (#1 is particularly common and correct).
