Is it OK to keep reheating leftovers? Honest questions about food safety, illustrated
Primary Content
With all the cooking, feasting and leftover-keeping that comes with the holidays, it can be hard to know how to keep food safe.
Sometimes we just do what our families did growing up (like storing rice in the rice cooker all day). Sometimes we follow what feels like common sense (if it looks and smells alright, it should be OK to eat, right?). But experts urge a little more caution.
Francine Shaw, a food safety specialist, and Namandjé Bumpus, principal deputy commissioner at the Food and Drug Administration, answer six honest questions about food prep and safe food handling. If you want to avoid giving your guests (and yourself) food poisoning this season, follow their advice.
