Say you had some leftover pizza and a yogurt you were going to bring to work for lunch, but you forgot it and it sat out for like 9 hours... could/would you put it back in the fridge and it would be alright to eat tomorrow? The wastefull man is trying to throw them out but I think it would be alright...

    If the pizza was covered and not in a sweaty place then :yes:
    Yoghurt :no:

    The pizza was in a ziplock... so I guess it could be considered covered

    It's quite cold round your way right now, so I am sure it's allright to eat. Unless you had the heating on while you were at work....
    Cold pizza is the best btw!!

    You're supposedly not supposed to leave yoghurt out for more than two hours due to the bacteria that's in it naturally. I don't know, I generally don't err on the side of caution but it's probably best to.

    Pizza will be fine! :thumb:

    yoghurt must be ok for more than two hours,. or there'd be a lot of poorly school children. But, I wouldn't have it after 9 hours. Pizza I'd eat.
