[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Five people were a keep? I'm surprised.

I am so not a germaphobe and I'll eat lots of food left out overnight, like pepperoni pizza. But I wouldn't eat a meat-stock based soup that was left out for over maybe three hours. I"m glad your side won, OP. :) [/quote]

I'm OP.  My side didn't win. I said toss and only a few others agreed with me. I was shocked so many people said it was fine. As of now, it is in the fridge b/c my spouse refuses to toss a perfectly good soup. FWIW, I made TWO soups yesterday so we have a second one and spouse has a stew in the crockpot, so it isn't like we have no food for guests.[/quote]

When I first met my in-laws, one of my FIL's quirks is he "doesn't eat leftovers." I thought that was pretty high maintenance of him.

Then I witnessed MIL leaving leftovers out all night. Like pot of soup left out all night, a plate of salmon with cream sauce just left on the counter top overnight, a cooked meatball calzone sitting on the kitchen table...

We've all tried to explain to her the importance of refrigeration, but she claims it will destroy the flavor of the food and be harmful for the fridge to have hot food in it. Plus, she never gets sick from her leftovers so why change, u know? Seriously, scientists should study MIL's stomach because I don't know how she never, ever gets food poisoning, even as those around her do... :([/quote]
