Pizza left out for ~9hrs yay or nay

[LeStEr]

I'm thinking of eating a slice left over from a pie I ordered earlier but its been out for about 9 hrs. Its got chicken and bacon as toppings and for some reason im worried. Any risk in eating this?

 

[Chronoshock]

Go for it, the bacon should provide a protective seal of hardened grease

 

If it were me, I'd just microwave it real well (45 seconds or so) and eat it. Why didn't you put it in the fridge in the first place?

i'd just nuke it. it should be fine for around 24 hours i guess.

Meat/poultry+Room temperature(>2 hours) = food posioning

Be a man and just shove it all in your mouth.

I leave sausage/pepperoni pizza out all the time, often 12+ hours. It's probably not the best thing in the world to eat, but I've never got food poisoning as a result.

H*ll no! In fact give me a slice!

long as it was already cooked, it's fine.

That's health code rules for restaurants hereabouts. Although, I tend to ignore this when I'm off duty.

just be prepared to spend some time in the restroom. Go for it.

sh!t.... some girl I knocked boots with this summer woke up... walked across the room and stared eating a pizza left over from days prior (dominoes doesent show). Before she took her first bite, I told her the deal... when she went ahead and did it anyway.... lol you should have seen the look on her face when I told her she coudln't kiss me on the mouth...

bunch of women

it is fine

24 hours + is where there is gray area

 

[Anonemous]

as long as it was cooked and the temperature of the room wasn't roasting (over 90+ degrees with high humidity) it should be fine.

 

[DeRusto]

pizza reaches its prime at about 9 or 10 hours at room temp.. go for it
