Answer 13

Man, these people are SO WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bacteria does not grow overnight!

Here's the general rule: As long as it was covered and not out over 10 hours after cooling, then it should be OK. When you cook it, you kill most bacteria. Mostly airborne bacteria will eventually start to accumulate roughly 18 to 24 hours after being kept out, and won't become the fuzzy, stinky kind until 24-36 hours later.

But to be safe, at least cover it when you're done and it is best to refrigerate your leftovers right after they cool.

Worst-case scenario- A case of indegestion and/or mud-butt. Food poisoning occurs when foods are undercooked or spoiled.

Answer 14

Absolutely, i do it all the time.  Typically, it takes longer for bacteria to grow in closed dark areas.  But food left out uncovered  generally has very little bacteria growth.

Answer 15

Nope

Answer 16

Depends foods are involved.........some things, maybe but as a general rule...no too much bacteria will have accumulated

Answer 17

no, it could make you sick

Answer 18

Yuck! Do you realize how much bacteria has grown on there during the night? Toss it!

Answer 19

No, you probably shouldn't eat it. As you are probably aware we cook and refrigerate food in order to control the amount of naturally-occuring bacteria. Room temperature is ideal for bacterial growth and certain foods become unsafe for consumption quickly when left at room temperature.
