Leftovers don’t last as long as most people think. Once food is prepared, bacteria can multiply quickly if it’s not cooled and stored properly. To reduce the risk of foodborne illness, refrigerate within 2 hours, keep at ≤4°C (40°F), and reheat thoroughly before eating. 1.

Aluminum foil might be a kitchen staple, but it’s not always the safest choice for food storage. In a recent feature, Vanessa Coffman, PhD, Director of the The Alliance to Stop Foodborne Illness, shares why certain foods should never be stored in foil. ⚠️ When warm foods are wrapped tightly in foil, they cool too slowly, lingering in the temperature “danger zone” (40–140°F) where bacteria like Bacillus cereus can multiply rapidly. Foil also isn’t airtight. It doesn’t protect against cross-contamination or help food cool evenly in the refrigerator. Safer swaps are shallow, airtight glass or food-grade plastic containers. Make sure to divide large portions into smaller containers to speed cooling and refrigerate leftovers promptly. Smart storage protects both the meals you worked hard to prepare and the people you’re feeding. Read more via the link in our bio! #foodsafety #StopFoodborneIllness #storage #publichealth
