food safety

363 views

If I cook up some food and decide to keep it to reheat later or tomorrow, why is it important where I store it? Eg it needs to be refrigerated. I get that bacteria will grow in the danger zones – so room temperature means bacteria will grow. But if I’m heating the food up doesn’t that kill the bacteria that would grow anyway? So why does it matter?

If you eat my shit, you’ll get sick. If you kill me and eat my shit, you’ll probably still get sick. That’s why heating food doesn’t protect you. The bacteria may be dead, but it’s shit is still harmful.
