re: Left out gumbo

FYI, some bacteria produce spores which may not be killed by boiling. So bringing your gumbo or stew to a boil after it's set out for an extended period of time does not kill those spores.

As was the case with your parents.

Well wouldn’t the spores be in there anyway from the get-go? If you bring it back to a boil and then cool and refrigerate per normal it would be safe bc if there are any spores in there (which would be present anyway whether it was left out or not) they wouldn’t be at temp long enough to grow.

What do I know? I have a master's degree in Microbiology and Biochemistry. Among other things, I hold an APHA Certification in Public Health and was a sterilization manager for the World's largest producer of Sterile IV solution. I maintained programs for processing sterile drugs for almost 50 years.
I also know how foolish asking the famous "I left my food out overnight" question is.
Let the guy eat his gumbo since he obviously wants to. Say something that allows him to do that. He either has no bad experience doing that or gets sick, possibly dies.
This is Tigerdroppings. It matters absolutely none at all what any of us say. Folks will wind up doing what they wanted to do when they first asked their question.
Sheesh.
