Can I eat sweet and sour chicken thats been out all night?!
Answers: I ordered sweet and sour last night and it didnt all get eaten, I forgot to put it in the fridge but put it in when I got up. Is it ok to eat?
Your sweet and sour chicken will be absolutely fine as long as you:
-heat it up well in your microwave
-make sure the dish is one suitable for a microwave
-serve it with some rice!! (Okay that's just an option!)
Enjoy your sweet and sour!
Hope I helped!
Have a great day!

it will be ok as long as you heat it up well.
I've done that so many times - I've never been ill the next day
i wouldn't. I wouldn't even eat it if it had been in the fridge, they do say you should not eat re-heated chinese food, that may be more to do with rice though.
Probably not cus my dad cooked it before left it out and it didn't smell so good the next day
I'd eat it! Never reheat rice though because that can make you ill!
Just make sure you have plenty of Andrex in.......
I would. But i'm not particularly anal about contamination, so I probably wouldn't be the best judge.
As the saying goes "When in doubt, throw it out."
Not sure but I sure as hell wouldn't touch it. Surely its going to be dry, stodgy and the rice is going to be hard.....
Ewww.
No bin it, It's been in a warm place to long.
Its up to you if yu want to take the risk. As its chicken i wouldnt eat it.
No. At least I wouldn't want to find out. Chicken spoils easily.
I wouldn't trust eating it.There is way to much food poisoning right now.
Of course you can, make sure it is all heated up thoroughly and enjoy!! theres nothin wrong with eatin last nights takeaway for breakfast..done it loads of time !!!
Of course you can't!!! It would be terribly unsafe to eat, even if you heated it. You couldn't get it hot enough for long enough to kill all the bacteria that's formed.
I wonder what the people that think it's OK to leave stuff like that out at room temperature all night use their refrigerators for. Storing socks?
why not, tastes the same :)
it will be alright as long as it was coverd up but really y would uwant to are u poor and starving just chuck it awya and make something fresh its not world war 2 we aitn on rations anymore
i've been cooking for years...i went to college...lived with two other guys for years and been poor enough to eat ritz crackers and cheez whiz for dinner...i've eaten a lot of weird stuff...but never, never never mess with chicken under any but normal circumstances, especially if it was take out
yes you can but heating it as long as its piping hot it will be ok enjoy
yeh i think so
I would eat it, but heta it through in microwave well first
Salmonella isn't a life event I would choose to risk.
You don't even know if that chicken was "pushing it" before they cooked it.
Throw it in the bin unless you want food poisoning.
You CAN, but I would not recommend it.
I would, without a second thought. That stuff is deep fried and usually loaded with salt anyway. But throw the rice away and start fesh. Bacillus cereus is a problem with that. Cooking activates the spores, and the bacterium makes two toxins. One toxin is heat labile, so reheating destroys it. But the other is heat stable, so reheating will not make the food safe to eat. It's only a problem with cereal grains, mostly rice.
