Rice

Unfortunately, in the 1970s, a large number of food poisoning outbreaks associated with fried rice from Chinese restaurant chains led to increased awareness that rice contains a microorganism called Bacillus cereus that multiplies left at room temperature.

Remember! This doesn’t mean you have to chuck all your uneaten takeout though—just make sure you’re putting it in the fridge quickly. In general, food safety guidelines recommend keeping foods hot (over 140°F) or cold (40°F or under) if you’re not eating it within two hours.
