[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The FDA specifies the safe range for foods as TWO HOURS at room temperature. Yes, kids taking lunch to school often violate this rule and a bunch of mystery stomach aches could be solved by parents not being morons[/quote] That's two hours once the food reaches room temperature. And it's incredibly conservative. And ham is processed so it lasts longer. And people are able to fight off the minor bacteria that are on food all the time regardless of whether it has been out for 119 minutes or 121.[/quote]
