The Role of Money and Mold Play

People's economic situation plays a huge role in regards to how they feel about eating leftovers and throwing them away. Some people put a heavy value on leftovers to save money, while others don't.

In addition to this, there are people who get anxious over food safety because of the possibility of food poisoning.

It is recommended to keep the 2-2-4 rule in mind - within 2 hours of preparation, store leftovers in the refrigerator in a shallow 2-inch dish, and consume within four days.
