left curry out of fridge overnight!!! eat or bin?

[stuckindamiddle]

Agh! Was trying to be organised to save time today. Made big curry in slow cooker yday and left it in a Tupperware uncovered to cool but headed out for dinner with DH and forgot to put it in fridge. Not sure how MIL (babysitting) failed to notice it and put it in fridge but it was still there on the worktop this morning. DH says it'll be fine to eat and has stuck it in the fridge. I'm not convinced. What do you think?

I'd reheat thoroughly and eat it, but I have a cast iron stomach and don't really get upset stomaches!

i do this all the time, not dead yet :)

What sort of curry is it? Vegetable will be fine.

Chicken and veg. (Free range, expensive chicken too...!! Typical!)

Eat - will be fine!

It will be fine. I do this all the time, although my kitchen is freezing and in the winter probably as cold as the fridge.

Eat. It'll be fine, I've done it lots.

I did this last night with my bolognese, I think it will be fine if you nuke it in the microwave when reheating.

It will be fine.
we make lots of curries here and when I was growing up mum would make a curry and leave it out. Obv once the weather gets warmer (I mean proper summer time) that's when she would put them in the fridge.
I put mine in the fridge if I have space if not dh will end up with it next day lol.

Fine, but I'd eat it today.

I'd eat it!

Thanks all! You've convinced me to eat it!!

It'll be fine.

Wasn't curry invented to stop meat going off quick anyway?

Gamer - that was DH's argument...!

heh my husband said the same to me.. that's how I found out

Hmmm dig at MIL even though she babysat for you. Ungrateful.

misssexy - not ungrateful, just thought she might have noticed. She asks to babysit btw.

Im indian curries often left out it will be fine.

You take MIL up on her kind offer, then slag her off to internet strangers because she didn't correct one of YOUR mistakes. Ungrateful & unkind.

miss - seems only you have a problem with it.

Gosh, if you've nothing better to do then why not spend a few days on mumsnet dishing it out to people criticising their MILs?!

By your book, someone does something helpful for you then you can't ever criticise them. How odd!

Less of the holier than thou please!

Actually I also thought your original post was a bit off.. Maybe next time ask her if you want her to do something?

If I'd remembered to ask her to put it in the fridge I would have just put it in there myself, but I forgot, hence the post!

Wouldn't even cross my mind not to !
