I did a foolish thing yesterday. I accidentally poisoned myself with some too-old-to-eat leftovers. Fortunately my body rejected everything I put in it all afternoon and evening so I’m feeling about 87.5% today. Oh well. Off to work.

One tip of advice is set your refrigerator to the low edge of its range.. Say 42 f., everything keeps better.

“To ensure that your refrigerator is doing its job, it’s important to keep its temperature at 40 °F or below; the freezer should be at 0 °F. Since few refrigerator controls show actual temperatures, using an inexpensive freestanding appliance thermometer will allow you to monitor the temperature and adjust the setting of the refrigerator and/or freezer if necessary. Buy one for the fridge, one for the freezer, and check them often.”

Agreeing with Michael - 40 degrees is your target for refrigeration.

I did the same thing. It was not as bad for me though. I am not sure which of the things I ate yesterday was too old.

I did the same thing last night I think. Undated packet of ranch dressing on some fresh veggies. Felt gassy a few hours later.... And here I am at 11am posting this from bed after finally getting a few hours of sleep that didnt involve passing out on the toilet.

What was it, how old? I’ve run this gauntlet many times. Always gotten away with it ;)

After further consideration, it seems to have been the stomach bug that has been going around. But rotisserie chicken from HT that had been in the fridge 4.5 days.
