My wife loves buying the whole chickens but only wants to eat the breast. I am constantly trying to eat the oldest chicken.

6 hours? Thats a stupidly short amount of time. Nothing is going to spoil to an inedible degree in 6h.

Is this comic american? Given their ever declining food safety, maybe it had a head start...

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 7 points 4 days ago

6 hours is pretty long but it really depends on the food. Bacteria grows expontentially so the amount 6 hours compared to 4 hours is not a third more but more like 50x more. Your always eating some bacteria but its a question of how much you consume with your food. Most food poisoning is toxicity and not disease which is why you just feel aweful for a day or so. Its also why heating it massively will not necessarily make it safe at that point.

But what kind of food do you have that six hours are an issue? I can leave my home made Bolognese outside over night and it's not an issue to eat. Cheese? Not an issue. The only thing I would be hesitant is Joghurt ...

6 hours should be nothing for most prepared foods that are not milk or raw egg based.

I would not be comfortable with cheese but like peanut butter and jelly in a sealed container would be fine. I guess it depends on how soft the cheese is.

[-] Scipitie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 days ago

Good point my association is the hard cheese where you can even cut mold away should there be any on top because it's impossible for it to go deep.

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 2 points 4 days ago

To be fair hard cheese is a form of food preservation. Hard sausages or pemican would be like that to.

Maybe oysters? If it's hot.

Otherwise no.

right?

we had pizzas unrefrigerated for 2-3 days in college, with no ill effects. fridge was full of beer...

[-] sakuraba@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 days ago

it depends on the food, pizzas are usually low on moisture / high on fats and salt so bacteria needs a lot more time to grow there
