- Don’t always have time to cook? That’s fine, there are always left overs! Inside Edition wanted to find out just how long leftovers are safe to eat. So we asked Peter DeLucia, the Westchester County assistant health commissioner, for his best advice on fridge staples. DeLucia tested an egg salad from a local mother's fridge, and the results were astounding. After three days, the bacteria in the food had increased by 4,000%. Check out our video to see how other foods fared in the test. #InsideEdition
If the food has fus, weird color or a weird smell and taste don’t eat it simple as that
Exactly
But the guacamole was the weirdest of them and it was the safest 🤔
ItsMoi Moí true. To make guacamole last longer add lime juice
@@Thatoneguykid if you add some lemon juice it will stay nice color wont go brown
@@luissanchez-fb1oq TF!
General rule is just to eat anything within 2 days. Especially if it's a dairy product. How adults dont know this is beyond me, I knew them back when I was a kid.
Wrong. My milk lasts 1 week
An antivax kid lasts 156.429 weeks.
@@ajramos2355 That's because theres things added to it. Real milk wont last a week. Dairy is notoriously bad for storage.
Proper storage helps too. Temperature, airflow and amount of light, all factors
@@karraskarras1103 Absolutetly, that's why I said "general rule" as it doesnt apply to everything.
Me: mom can we stop at mcdonalds?
Mom: no we got food at the house
Food at the house: 1:06
Dude every mom ever lol
Apple Jelly lmao
Lmao
Lol! 😂
“Just remove the bad parts.”
Lisa Guerrero would’ve confronted the leftovers.
David Swed FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY 😆 HAS YOUR MOM BEEN PLAYING THIS FOR YEARS BUT IT’S A LITTLE BIT TOO HARD BUT IT DOESN’T MAKE ME SAD
Kanye East I had a stroke reading your comment
Lisa: "Sir sir, why did you go bad?"
Leftovers:
Lisa: "why is there so much more bacteria on you now?"
Leftovers:
Lisa: "why is it unsafe to eat you now?"
Leftovers:
Lisa: "so you dont wanna talk to me?"
Leftovers:
Kanye East bro I’m trying to gain clout off my comment leave me alone lol.

I eat danger zone food all the time. How am I still alive. And I'm pretty sure there's homeless who eat danger zone leftovers all the time.
They stomachs built for it tho.
It makes you stronger.
Yes there is
ziljin: you must be asian
I eat danger zone food multiple times a day
My refrigerator always has leftovers because we like to pretend we’re going to eat it but it’s just to make us feel better by not throwing it away the same day we ate it 💀😂
Lmao!!! Same here. 🤣
We don't eat leftovers at all and whatever isn't eaten that night goes in the garbage immediately
@@robertwalton1054 that seems like a waste
Same for us we don’t like to throw out a lot of leftover food but we never eat it anymore after day one except gumbo we eat that for two days the day we make it and the the very next day
When your family is so broke that you can't even get a turkey.
Edit: 240 likes!? All I said was that I couldn't afford a damn turkey.
Get a few parts of the turkey, like maybe a leg or two, and make a casserole, with mashed potatoes, or sweet potatoes, a bit of cranberries, and orange.
Get a turkey leg
When your so broke that you can’t even afford a family
When you live in a war zone country u have internet to send horrible war video and watch people in America biggest problem is left over food
i would reccomend getting some chicken. another great thing is thanksgiving shepards pie, which includes stuffing, chiken/turkey, gravy, and some more.
5 days after Thanksgiving I'm still going to eat my food
BABY KING that’s right 👌
Right who’s stopping me
You know what to say🤣🤣🤣
Word I never got sick lol
This is why I dont bother eating thanksgiving food and I would rather eat a LARGE pizza
Cringe bro
Hope you rather diabetes
Karras Karras what? That didn’t even make sense
Karras Karras you dont get diabetes by eating a large amount of something in one day thats not how it works
So gross
Leftovers never last longer than a day in my house, lol....so I don't really have to worry
Same with me 😂
Samee 😂
lol she puts her hands out to catch the egg salad when he puts it up side down. Such a mom thing to do 😂😂😂
Yea...cause she'd be stuck cleaning it up, if it fell.
It’s like a DQ Blizzard! 😳
Sniff test it.😂
What do you think restaurants do when someone forgets to label it?
Sita Vitel we try to wing it and remember the dates, if we think it’s been a few weeks then we make it again
What about food on Grocery shelves that people just put on shelf no refrigeration then employees or customer put back in area it belongs in so do we know it was safe.
@@genesismarquez4065 I'm aware. 21 years of cook than chef and yelling at sous for not dating things.
I've had the pleasure of sampling a lot of questionable things. I won't send it unless I've tasted it.
The worse one I ever hit was sour beef gravy.
Idiot sous chef didn't leave it to cool proper.
Patricia if it’s been found a while after and it feels warm then it’s thrown out to the garbage, depending on what it is. Usually the label has a time as it by the law in the grocery stores, 80% it’ll be thrown out
2 days 3 days max and if I know I cooked a lot I’m putting most of it in the freezer
Some people waste food while many many others face food insecurity. Life is truly a test.
Have McDonald's on Thanksgiving, would stay fresh till the next 20 Thanksgiving's lmao
It actually wouldnt. It would be moldy by week 2 for sure
@@rustykuntz7423 it was a joke buddy
Jason Shaw Actually there been study showing that mcDonalds food Last long
I’ve been eating left overs a week old still. Just blast it in the microwave
Mount Fuji ewww😂😂😂
@@KOLAkola it’s not that bad lol
Mm, I’m finna die soon. I got apple juice from a year ago.
Cyder don’t drink it then lol
What is a finna?
Draco finna means “going to” in slang
I still don’t have my milk
I drank old sachet milk from hotels that's probably 3 years ago
My husband would argue a week for everything
Mine just said the same thing when I told him this! lol 😀
Peace & Love 😂 theyre fearless
Sarah Shae he is right
It builds immunity. It’s good for you
My husband is also a believer of the week leftovers
Inside edition: throw the turkey away after 3 days *
me after 3 days: still eats turkey ...
Right I'm not bout to throw my turkey away after 3 days
Meat over night, anything else 2 days max
Lmao ok nerd, ima still eat leftovers after thanksgiving
Nothing gets thrown out in my house bcuz my son eats up everything like a starving man. And he never gains a pound while I cant even look at Turkey without gaining 4 pounds🤣
No i refuse to throw away leftover turkey unless it smels
Tyler Sheehy Just freeze anything you aren't going to use within a few days and put it in the fridge to thaw out when you want more. It's still quite good after being frozen.
I’m Haitian we leave rice in the fridge for months 🇭🇹 and still throw it in the microwave and bust down
Lol deadass and they be like like "li bon, al manje!!" 😭😭😭
"What do you think?"
Shoves it in her face
Lmaoo
😅
“Your health is at steak” I see what you did there and I’m not mad
lmao I didnt notice 😂
Seems like there's no man in the household. The bacteria guy should start dating the mom.
Oh I'm sorry, I forgot we were living in the sixties now.
Ben Shapiro is busy.
Although a man Is detrimental to raising a child if she is for filling both roles that best she can they’ll turn out all right
You assume he’s single?
Ok, but what if he's not single???
Am I the only one who still doesn't care knowing that I already ate a lot of bacteria by now,🤷
Did that guy have a badge on his chest? LMAO
Also you can’t rely on the expiration date. That date is only good until it is opened. If you open it, you’ve only got a few days even if the expiration date is weeks away. There’s always exceptions though, like cheese.
He should have said something about freeze the leftover food
I have a 3 day rule. I throw out leftovers after 3 days. My stomach is very sensitive and i get sick very easily
I finally broke down and bought a home freeze dryer. Best thing I’ve ever bought in my entire life. A lot of my leftovers will last 25 plus years now.
Pizza: i don't go bad after 7 days
McDonalds fries: hold my beer
Fast food doesn't last more than a 3 hours
@@davon6704 search for "man keeps 14 year old burger" on youtube.
when your mom and uncle go to the bathroom together: 2:08
"oh yeah can you smell"
"oh no not right"
As a bodybuilder I prepare 7 days of meals on a Sunday. And Ive not been Suck in 15 years.
And this is why certain people get sick because they scared of a little bacteria lol
If I'm concerned about left over food, that I may have kept too long, I offer a piece of it, to may cat. She has a much better nose than I, and will quickly let me know if it's ok. If it is, she takes a bite. If not, she scratches around it, with her front paw. She is never wrong, and neither of us get sick.
After day 3 im ready to thro it all out. 2days tops
Yea. For me after 2 days in the fridge, i would throw it away.
We throw it all out after 1 day because we don't want that old food. At our house, Thanksgiving dinner is in the garbage on Friday
This just doesn't make sense. People pack food like sandwiches to work or school, and sometimes wait much longer than 2 hours before eating it, yet they don't get sick!
But those aren’t the types of foods I eat for Thanksgiving...
Remember To Pray Before Eating And Drinking. Spread The Gospel.
All leftovers for thanksgiving is still gettin eating weeks after thanksgiving 😂.
Bro my mom would have been like : it's fine just eat it or you'll starve
I usually keep thanksgiving leftovers for 2+ weeks
Dude, I mean I wouldn't need an expert to say that I can eat my leftover pizza.
Thanksgiving leftovers is good until it’s all gone...
In my house all that food would be gone by the first 2 days
Inside edition: TRASH
Mayonnaise company: say sike right now
Said that before, Ill say that again: pizza will save the world
We watched someone watching Inside Edition... Now imagine someone was watching us watching Inside Edition
I’ve always tossed everything after 3 days. Thought that was the norm.
I have a 3 day rule lmfao when it hits 3 days it's out
Now if I learned something from my father over the past few years.
*you eat it until it’s gone*
I found food from 2006 in my grandmother’s fridge just 3 weeks ago.
So you’re telling me to waste food that is perfectly fine smh
I just clicked on the video because the bun in the thumbnail looked good but now I gained some knowledge.
They should have the health inspector do the same for folks who dumpster dive
I have so many family members they all take the leftover home with them, so I will let them know 🤣😂
Tip: Invest in a compost bin: that way you can upcycle your leftovers in a healthy and environmentally-friendly way! Plus, you don't feel that sinking sensation of guilt that comes with throwing away leftovers. And it's great for the garden!
Last year, I ate 1 week old Turkey that was refrigerated for 4 day. I'm still living and healthy
3 days tops. I try not to make more than I intend to eat for 2 meals.
Guacamole: 3
Eggs: 3
Tuna and Caesar Salad: 3
Thanksgiving Turkey: 3
Pizza: 7
In a black house hold your parents make spaghetti and you eat leftovers for a week
SAME! I’m not African American tho I’m Hispanic. Still 75% of all the food I eat is microwaved old left overs.
✨What doesn’t kills you makes you stronger✨
@@Stephanie-sy5jw 😂😂😂
Who tf throws guacamole out in 3 days.
I’m all about leftovers. I even eat them after it’s been in the fridge for a week.
Still good, haven’t had any problems with it
Mee too I'm on s budget.
Me too! I had gastric surgery and I have eaten food up to 7 days! Never been sick!
Probably a strong immune system 😂
A week max, sorry not wasting my food. I’ve been fine all these years. And who the hell eats guacamole and pizza on thanksgiving
All you have to do is boil the meat and vegetable leftovers and make a hearty soup.
Frying is also a good option.
The perfect house wife
In thanksgiving I eat most Mexican food and turkey
If it doesn't look or smell like it does when in comes out of you it's fine!
We'd have turky for a month after thanksgiving.
You know whats the most big brain move? Its not eat it in the first place or eat at all
I love how they say “it was defying gravity”, making the report much more humorous and interesting to watch.
Pretty sure they don’t factor in taking it out of the fridge AND the container getting it more exposed
The whole danger zone of leaving food out for 2+ hours , I do that all the time... Leave it out for over 2 hours, put it in the fridge for days and still eat it... All the time. Never had food poisoning once, never gotten sick.
it call weak people
Of it looks and smells ok, it's good to go.
i be eating leftovers the whole December what you mean..
Myleah Solis facts
I must have a strong stomach because I’ve eaten left overs 5 days later.
In my household there aren't leftovers. You either eat the damn thing or discard it.
Throw turkey away after 3 days? No thanks, I’ll take that risk
My Hispanic parents: if it's not green or smelly it's still good
Inside edition has an expert for everything
After 3 days if it's not eaten I throw it out no matter what its common sense
My parents: looks at food
Also my parents: throws ot away because they dont want to eat germs
The real question is....
Should i eat the pumpkin pie or the sweet potato pie?
I read it as, how much long bread can you eat. I was confused. And also convinced because the thumbnail is bread.
It’s common sense to know when food goes bad
This video reinforces exactly why I dont keep leftovers
Yup, we never keep any leftovers. They all get thrown out
3 days?? We’ve always eaten up to 5 days and never been sick from leftovers. I wonder how cold their fridge is.
I ate food on the counter for over 6-7 hours. Cookout food really don’t be going bad. And turkey for a week. Never got sick.
egg salad sandwich from a vending machine almost killed me. it was the worst pain ever.
Nobody,inside edition:HoW To BrEaTh PrOpErLy
Food waste should go in the compost bin these days.
I would’ve thrown the food away after they rubbed it with the Q-tip
Me:can I we have dinner now
Mom:wait till Thursday
About to eat 30 day old olive garden , pray for me .
1:44 Love the lab coat with the bacteria colony pattern on it.
I am in culinary you can save food up to seven days if held at right cooling temp but on the seventh day toss
Once when I was in 1st grade, it was Christmas break and I had forgotten to empty my lunchbox during the break. 2 weeks later I open it and it didn’t even look like an Uncrustable anymore
