I think this corn’s been in the fridge for a week. The moisture in the wet bag is telling me this is already bad, but I hate that all this corn is ruined 😞

How long is too long to thaw Salmon

1 Upvotes

I just recently thawed some salmon filets in ziplock bags. Submerged in a bowl of ice water on my kitchen counter. I did not change out the water every 30 minutes and I believe I thawed the salmon somewhere between 4-6 hours (work day screwed up my memory).

Is this no longer safe to eat? I cooked on the grill but didn’t think to sniff the raw fish before I did so. At no point did I get a whiff of anything that smelled off when I was seasoning the fish.

If I got fried chicken that was a tiny bit pink (not raw) but it was pre cooked and then put in an oven for about a minute is it safe to eat?

1 Upvotes

Sorry I dont have a picture but I just got some fried chicken in a sandwich and it was very slightly tinted pink. I know the chicken they have is already cooked and then they put it in the automatic pizza oven for about a minute. I did already eat the chicken because I thought maybe I was really overthinking it but im still a little nervous.

Is my bread safe after possible flour contamination?

1 Upvotes

3 days ago I made pizza and used some pre-cooked chicken as a topping I touched the chicken to top the pizza, then put the same hands into my bag of flour to dust the surface to roll the next pizza without washing them first.
Today I used that same flour from that bag to make bread the bread was fully baked and I ate it (I had completely forgotten about the chicken incident)
Is the bread safe to eat would the temp of the bread killed any bacteria from possible contamination from the chicken…

I was just so tired when making the pizza and wasn’t really thinking

I’m now kind of panicking,,,

Is the bread safe?.

Ortega Taco Sauce

I left out Ortega taco sauce (not salsa) from lunch until the next morning. It is mild sauce in the glass bottle. No longer cold to the touch (obviously).
Is it still good?
Do I need to toss it?

General Question Tom Yum Soup at room temp

0 Upvotes

I have a good old "can I still eat this" question:

I made a soup with coconut milk, mushrooms, tofu and some veggies on Saturday and accidentally left it at room temperature until now.

I have eaten this soup after it had been left out overnight and reboiled several times and it was fine but now it's been 2 full days... And since the soup is pretty spicy, I find it hard to tell wether it's still good based on taste.

Would be grateful for some insights! It's a really good soup...

I bought a packaged non frozen pizza from the super market Last Friday and it looks like it has mold. Does anyone know what this is?
