| Large Sam's Club container that was never opened was left on the table last night. It is not a shelf stable jar but one that comes from the refrigerator section (excellent btw). It was out for about 8 hours. I opened it and it smells fine but... |

You’re right, it is excellent!!
I’d probably eat it. It’s just fresh veggies in there, right? |
| It's fine. Tomatoes are acidic. Spoiled veggies like that produce bubbles and have a carbonated taste. |
| Fine. That would take a long time to go bad due to acidity |
| I’d toss it. It isn’t meant to be left out for a reason |
| Totally fine! |
| The ingredients really aren't that perishable. I'm sure it's fine but it might have a shortened life in the fridge. It might get wilted and watery more quickly than usual. |
| Yes, perfectly fine. Fermentation enhances the flavor. |
| I am ok with many things left outside but not fresh salad or salsa. You can risk it since it was unopened, & if it still seems fresh to you. I’d definitely toss if it was opened. But this I’d lean towards tossing. |
