50 degrees for an hour? Are you always this panicky about food? Good lord, it’s fine.

It's fine. Unless it was in direct sunlight....then I might question it.

Never. Once a sandwich gets mayo put on it it needs to go in the trash.

It’s not the Mayo, it’s the other stuff in the sandwich that could be a concern. But I wouldn’t worry about it.

I’ve left the mayo jar outside all night sometimes. We’re all still kicking.

Years ago mayo was homemade and basically eggs and oil. Not the same as commercial. Most are acidic enough to retard bacteria.

Growing up, my mother never kept mayonnaise in the refrigerator. I am appalled now, but none of us ever got sick as far as I know.

I wouldn’t worry about the mayonnaise. Commercially produced mayo is generally shelf stable, even after opening. It’s the other ingredients that are potentially more perishable.

Yes, but it's hermetically sealed. Nonetheless, for years I have consumed mayonnaise that has sat unrefrigerated in my 67F house for 24 hours at a time some time longer, with no ill effect.

A friend kindly picked me up a sandwich from my favorite deli and dropped it at my stoop (I wasn't home!) Probably sat for about an hour in 50-degree weather. Safe to eat? AHHH.
