Cooked meat is a food item that can spoil quickly at room temperature due to its high protein content which provides an ideal environment for bacteria to grow. It is recommended to refrigerate cooked meat within two hours of cooking to prevent spoilage and foodborne illness.

How long before miracle whip at room temperature spoils?

This is not a answer backed by any actual statistics. But... as I remember, food requiring refrigeration should not be kept out at room temperature more than 4 hours. After this time, there is an unsafe amount of bacteria on the product. The important thing to keep in mind is that ALL food has bacteria on it and all refrigeration does is SLOW the growth of it. So taking food out for an hour four times would be the same as taking it out straight for 4 hours. It's the total amount of time the food sits at room temperature - and I believe that the "magic number" is 4. Hope this helps.

Why is it that when you leave food out it turns cold but when you leave drinks out it turns hot?

Usually, food is heated to a temperature hotter than the temperature of a room, about 160F. and drinks are usually much cooler than room temperature around 45F or less. So both hot food and cold drinks will eventually equal the temperature of the space or room they are left in.
