Question

I accidently left cooked chicken and mac 'n cheese out overnight. Should I toss it or would it be okay to eat if I nuked it in the microwave for a few mins?

It would now become time to throw it out,I never take a chance with left out food!!!

Answer 2

def toss it!wrank

Answer 3

Sad but true...you have to throw it out.  I know, it's painful.  But better that then getting the stomach cramps and diarrhea for days! :{

Answer 4

if you left it out at or near refrigeration temperature then you should be okay but anything above that, toss it. You don't want to risk your health over something like that. You can always make more mac n cheese!

Answer 5

Don't Toss it!!!

Just bake the chicken on low for about twently minutes. Yes, you can nuke it too. Or you can even 'fry it' for a few minutes to kill any bacteria. I have eaten chicken left out over night (that was already cooked) and I didn't die.. or hurl for that matter!!

The mac and cheese is fine too, although I am sure it's good an sticky by now. Just add a dash of butter of milk, warm it in the micro, and it's good as new again!

Answer 6

toss it

Answer 7

dude,toss it in the garbage man.

Answer 8

I would'nt risk it, especially with the chicken.  

Answer 9

I'm not an expert or anything, but I think the mac n cheese will be ok, just stick some extra butter in it before you put it in the microwave. As for the chicken, if it were me I'd toss it. I've heard meats, even if they are cooked, shouldn't sit out at room temp for longer than 2 hours because the bacteria starts togo to work. The FDA has a website you could look up just to be sure.  

Answer 10

Toss it all!  The mac and cheese has milk that can go bad and chicken you always have to be careful with.

Answer 11

Answer 13

Answer 15
