Left a frozen pizza out on the counter for 6 hours - Safe to cook and eat?

Kruser6 · Oct 15, 2006

Forgot to put it away after I got groceries - Still safe to eat?

ChrisParadise · Oct 15, 2006

i stocked groceries in college and we'd leave frozen food out for entire 8.5 hr shifts. never heard about any deaths.

Microwave at 50% level for 3 minutes! Then put the soggy sucker in a 475 degree pre heated oven or higher till it looks lika a pizza.

With your luck tonight, I wouldn't do it. Horrific beat on the Fla.-Aub. game.

I figure things can't get any worse. That game was a $209 turnaround in a matter of 3 secs for me and was the difference from winning $56 today to losing 140+ . . .Either way not a terrible day but I would much rather be in the black then the red.

:missingte

Funny thing is that I was just thinking about how long it had really been out and I realized I was back home before kickoff of the Oregon game. It was actually out for quite awhile longer then 6 hours. However, I have been sitting here all night thinking about cooking that pizza and when I finally went to do it, it was sitting on the counter. Fuck it.

Pepperoni--particularly frozen pizza pepperoni--is damn near indestructable. While that might not bode well for your digestive system, its not going to go bad. If there's ever a nuclear holocaust all that will remain will be cockroaches and cured meats like pepperoni...

This might also be a case where the cheaper the pizza the longer its unfrozen shelf life--or in this case "counter life". The more expensive frozen pizzas use better cheese with fewer preservatives.

In any case, you're probably safe with a basic frozen (or "unfrozen") pepperoni pizza....good luck to you!
