Anything is edible if you're hungry enough

The way I like my salmon cooked, I wouldn’t eat it. The way a lot of people eat it, sure. But I think most people overcook their salmon by a decent amount.

I won't eat anything that's seafood or with dairy that's been left out overnight like that.

I'm funny about my food. Got food poisoning once and now I check every expiration date when I go shopping. I don't even eat leftovers longer than two days.

Do you think bears refrigerate their catch? You’re fine.

I guess I'm an outlier, because I have no issue with eating something I left out overnight. IF it wasn't covered, probably wouldn't eat it, but otherwise yeah it doesn't bother me.

Of course it’s fine. Food doesn’t go bad that quickly.

You are seriously nuts if you think your food goes bad after two hours.

I'm shocked too, but from the other side. Every time I see one of these threads, I'm shocked by the number of people who risk eating it, or are seriously considering it.

I guess I get it if you're food insecure or grew up during the Great Depression and have that mentality about not wasting anything, but otherwise, I think you're weird.

What I'm thinking. It's a piece of salmon. I'm not risking getting very ill over 8 bucks of salmon.

This thread started on the OT so it's a little more tard

I’m picturing you looking at the clock, seeing that your cooked seafood has been sitting out for 1 hour and 55 minutes, and racing to the microwave to reheat it so you can eat it before it goes bad. Is it still safe after 1 hour and 59 minutes but as soon as it hits 2 hours, then it’s deadly poison? Lulz.

The paranoia expressed on here about food that has been left sitting out overnight is remarkable. I routinely leave food sitting out, covered, overnight because it’s a lot easier to reheat it from room temperature the next day. I made some fried rice with chicken and shrimp on Thursday and could only finish half of it. I put plastic wrap over the dish and left it sitting on the counter and reheated it in the microwave the next evening. It had to be sitting out for a good 16 hours. It was fine. I was fine.

If it looks, smells, and tastes okay, it’s okay. Trust your nose. Don’t throw perfectly good food in the trash just because you’re a nervous Nellie. What a waste.

Do bears eat rotten food out of dumpsters and garbage cans?
Do they get sick from it?

Would you?
The digestive systems of bears and humans are not the same.

Science proves you’re wrong.

Sometimes the food will be fine.

Other times it won’t be.

That doesn’t mean it’s always safe every time.

I can tell when food has gone bad and cooked food that’s been sitting out for 2 hours hasn’t gone bad. The science says I’m right because I’ve conducted the experiment hundreds of times over the course of decades.
