Would you eat it?

I think you just convinced me.

I totally agree, Chicaa. No need to take a chance.

@AmbiePam I hope so! I know you hate waste but there's no way it is safe to eat fish that wasn't refrigerated for 24 hours. Not worth the risk.

@snowy22315 Oh, I forgot about that.

Darn. I really thought I had it cold enough in here to get a yes out of a few people.

@AmbiePam Maybe if it was cheese or something with a ton of preservatives in, but definitely not something like that. Besides you may already be immunocompromised to a degree

It doesn’t smell bad. I keep it really cold inside, but not like refrigerator cold. I just hate to waste money. Maybe one bite isn’t a bad idea.

@AmbiePam I hate wasting anything. I ordered some salmon for dinner here tonight. It's iffy but one bite should tell you if it's safe to eat. I was going to say sounds fishy but thought iffy was better right now.

@Vikingswest1 Iffy is good.

I’m not going to eat it. Everybody seems pretty certain it’s a terrible idea.

@DaddyEvil From one bite? Wow! I got food poisoning along with my mom the Thanksgiving I was fifteen. Long John Silver’s shrimp wrap. Four days of wretchedness. For years, and I’m sure you understand, to get our goat, my sister and dad would say “shrimp wrap” when they wanted to get us. We never ate Long John Silver’s again.

@AmbiePam Thank goodness! I ate some pasta with chicken in it that had set out for a couple of hours before I put it away. Pretty walked in right after I'd eaten one bite... I asked if she wanted some and she wrinkled her nose and told me to spit the bite out, the pasta was bad... I rinsed and rinsed to get as much out of my mouth as I could but couldn't do anything about the bite I'd swallowed. The next morning, I woke up sweating my tush off on a cool fall day. I went to work and kept feeling worse and worse... At my first break, I couldn't get up out of the chair without falling down... My boss came in to see what was going on and put his hand on my shoulder and jumped back saying I was boiling hot. They got the security guard to drive me home and I called my doctor. She told me to stay in bed and drink all the water, juice or broth I could and hope I felt better soon. She said if I was still running a high fever by the next day I really, really should go to the ER... I ran a high fever for several days but didn't want to go to the ER... I just kept drinking juice and water until I started feeling better.

It’s only under 40 degrees during winter (I rarely run the heater and just wear layers). I think you’re right; I’ll skip it.

Very true.

I will.

You’re right.
