When the food is under forty degrees in a refrigerator, the bacteria are not growing as they would at between forty and 120. The general rule about food preparation is keep cold things cold below 40 degrees, and hot things hot, above 160. Our steam tables at the hospital are at least 135 degrees. Warmers are usually set for about 180-200. When you have food setting out, it is an invitation for disaster. You only have about two hours from the time you prepare the food to when it becomes dangerous. If you want to keep something cold on the table, put a larger pan under it with ice in it. Keep a thermometer handy to take food's temp also.

Yes, a cooler environment can slow down the rate of cell growth in potato salad, as lower temperatures can inhibit bacterial growth. However, it is still important to store potato salad in the refrigerator to prevent foodborne illness and maintain freshness.
