Would you eat prawn Chinese takeaway left out overnight then chilled?

[Purplecatshopaholic]

I left some Chinese food on the counter top last night as forgot to put it in the fridge. It’s prawn dish. It’s chilly here overnight and I put it in the fridge first thing this morning. Would you eat it tonight?

No. Prawns are one of the very worst sources of food poisoning.

No. Definitely not. ( but I don't eat prawns anyway)

Nope

Yes if it was last night because it was very very cold here anyway.

On a warmer night - no.

Absolutely not.

It does if you don't want to bring the temperature of all the other food in your fridge up!

If you leave something on the side for 60 mins to cool it won’t raise the internal temperature of your fridge. If you put it in when it’s just cooked and boiling hot then yes it will raise the temperature

Yes, every time

Interesting, a few people who are willing to do it, and loads more No Ways than I expected. Having decided just to go for it, I feel totally fine - for now. I will try and remember to come back and report my findings for the MN record, lol.

I wouldn't. That’s a long time to be at room temperature.

No way

No absolutely not

I would and have tbh.

Ha please @Purplecatshopaholic do a welfare check for us in the morning. Enquiry minds need to know

Yes Id eat it. It being prawns would make no odds, it would be fine.

Not a chance… I wouldn’t eat any food left out over night…. I have a fear of being sick so that’s an absolute no from me…

I’d fish out the prawns, and eat the rest…

No - these not much I won’t eat but I would never keeps prawns to have as leftovers, let alone not fridged immediately.

Yes, but I clearly have no standards 😁

I mean, I'm not dead yet, so I assume that's a good sign.

No way

Only if I wanted to lost half a stone quickly, and in the most unpleasant of ways. 😬

Only if I desperately wanted to lose weight in a hurry.

not prawns, but in general eg curry then yes

Are you crazy!

No , as my second child was born 6 weeks early after I ate prawns from a buffet and became violently ill ( bad decision but I was hungry). It had obviously been out for ages.In my defence I didn't know that as we had just arrived.
