For those who would eat it, please tell me you wouldn't serve it to guests! I'm not one who worries about eating food other people cooked at potlucks etc. But then I read something like this and I wonder if I should!

Unless you left it in your sub freezing car that’s a big NO.
My friend, who is going thru a lot, recently left an entire chicken in her car at 9 pm. The highest temp that night was 28. It was frozen solid. She figured it was ok, but she made soup out if it just in case so it was boiled real well.

I'm pretty lackadaisical about food safety....I leave leftover dinner on the stove longer than you should, I defrost meat on the counter, I eat leftover rice for a couple days, I use milk and pantry items past their expiration date (assuming they don't smell/look funny) but even I wouldn't touch that chicken except to put it straight in the trash.

The only thing worse than pooping water for weeks is a dog pooping water for weeks. That's a hard nope. |

I’d toss. (And I never say that!!) Same. I'm almost always in the "eat it" group, but this time I'm on Team Toss It. I still remember the time my dad bought a rotisserie chicken and my brother left it on the bench for a couple of hours. There were maggots everywhere! I still don't understand how the maggots got there so quickly seeing it was only out for a few hours, but I will never forget the sight of those wiggling little monsters.  |

Ha I’m going to be the lone person. I would reheat it/incorporate it into something that’s cooked (such as a soup) and eat it. I know plenty of people who eat leftover pizza that was left in the box on the counter. I don’t see how this is much different. The rotisserie chicken was already completely cooked as well. Leftover pizza is not chicken.  We usually always leave pizza sitting out overnight but it's only crush, sauce, cheese, and some veggies. Not chicken. |

i think some peas are kinda (with all due respect) crazy and wasteful with food... and i say "toss".
orange juice left out... how is that even is question? if it doesn't smell funny and doesn't taste funny, it's orange juice, take a walk on the wild side... but chicken is pretty much a hard no for me.

They are both cooked, perishable food. Cooked dairy that’s left out is no better than cooked meat that’s left out. |

Ok, that is kind of terrifying. I'm going to put that down to the absolute bastardry, that is the Aussie blow fly.  NOTHING deters those little prats. |

Well, I consulted my sister on this question, and she said, meh, if the kitchen was cold overnight and the chicken smelled okay, she’d eat it. I was kinda impressed.
I do leave pizza out overnight if it’s cold. After 24 hours, anything left goes in the trash. Never had a problem. I don’t like refrigerated pizza.

They are both cooked, perishable food. Cooked dairy that’s left out is no better than cooked meat that’s left out. Cheese is totally different from meat! Cheese *is* mold, basically.  Not that I'm letting my cheese sit around at room temperature for weeks, oy... But this is the reason that you can just cut off mold from the outside of hard cheeses, but you'd NEVER want to just cut off mold from meat. |

Pizza is really not an issue the way a rotisserie chicken could be. |

If the chicken stayed out overnight and it was cold in the house, i might eat it but i would NEVER EVER serve it to guests. first of all, i don't want people vomiting or crapping uncontrollably at my house so that's a great motivator. i would hope that people extend me the same courtesy but just in case they don't, i'm super cautious about potluck situations. |

I wouldn’t eat the chicken as is, but I’d cook it in a dish. Double standard? This isn't a sex equality problem, it's science and facts. Curing meat and making cheese are ways to preserve food. And small bits of things like sausage or mozzarella used as pizza toppings are more likely to dry, thus inhibiting bacterial growth, where a large item like a chicken will stay moist and provide a far more ideal climate for bacterial growth. But you do you, boo. |

But you do you, boo. I do think it is a double standard when people claim to be super concerned about food safety, yet will leave certain foods out. I'm not saying rotisserie chicken and pizza are apples to apples, but leaving pizza out is an actual choice many people make, instead of putting it in the refrigerator or freezer. Regular pizza aside, I also know plenty of people who leave deep dish pizza out...which definitely stays moist overnight. Even the USDA says pizza is no different. They even include it on their tips for college students, haha: www.fsis.usda.gov/wps/wcm/connect/fsis-content/internet/main/topics/food-safety-education/get-answers/food-safety-fact-sheets/safe-food-handling/food-safety-tips-for-college-students/ct_index I don't think anyone would leave a chicken out by choice, but again, I just think it's funny how people make some choices regarding food safety but could not fathom others. But as you said, you do you. |
