  1. Oh, for god's sake what a bunch of wusses!  I lived in W. Africa without a fridge for 2 years, so I can tell you first-hand that your pizza won't be spoiled or make you sick unless it's been sitting out long enough to grow mold (like 2 weeks).  The biggest risk of getting sick you run is for insects to have landed on it or mice to have gotten at it.  If you have kept it covered, you'll be fine.  Enjoy.


  2. Pizza can "go bad" after 2 hours.  If you are at a hotel/motel without a room fridge: ask the front desk clerk or  kitchen helpers for a baggie, place the pizza slices inside, and lay them on a bucket of ice cubes.  You might be able to keep them a little longer.

  3. well if u had cheese on it ure only suppose to keep it out for about 30 min to a hour anylonger than that i wouldnt eat it if i were u unless u wanna get sick. cheese cant stay out that long unless its in a ref. then it could be eatin within a couple dayz

  4. My friends and I used to regularly have sleepovers where we'd eat the leftover pizza for breakfast after it had been sitting out all night. Not saying that's the best way to go about things, but nobody ever got sick or anything...

  5. Kind of make a little "cooler" in the sink.  Put a bunch of ice in it, plastic over it, then set the left over pizza on it (wrapped) and put a couple of towels over to keep in the cold........

  6. i have left  my pizza out all day and the next day eat it and it was fine

  7. a day should be ok, but any longer than that and I would be wary.....

    youll know by taste if it has gone bad....

    altho with meat on it, it willl go bad quicker...

  8. I wouldn't worry unless it starts to grow mold.  When I was younger we always kept our pizza sitting out in the box.  I still do that and I haven't gotten sick or died from it yet.

  9. I usually order pizza and eat it for diner the next night left out as long as it's in the box then I'll eat it. I only refrigerate it if I have room in the refrigerator for a box or I feel like wrapping it up lol (rarely do that one) Also I only do that if there is cheese or peperoni I would never do it w/ ham sausage or steak or any other c**p they throw on it.

  10. I would say 2 hours. Why don't you call the health department and ask them; you don't have to say who you are or why. I wouldn't eat it if it had meat on it.

  11. My girls regularly have a cheese stuff crust ham mushroom and pineapple pizza for their evening meal, any left they leave in the box without refridgerating and then eat whats left the next day. they have never been ill.

    Hope this helps
