I’m am so paranoid about the food I eat. If anything AT ALL is wrong with my food in any way, I feel nervous about eating it. Or sometimes I just won’t eat it. A perfect example is the fish sticks I just made for dinner. Last time I pulled them out to make some, I accidentally left them on the counter for just 15 minutes. At the time I was nervous about having left them out, but I reassured myself that 15 minutes isn’t very long at all. They didn’t seem thawed or anything either. And heck, the fish lasts about an hour on it’s way from the store. Even longer for when my parents shop here. I also know that it only starts to get harmful after at least 2 hours. Thats just the general rule anyway. AND even if there was a little bit of bacteria in there, it was at boiling temperature for at least a few minutes. It’ll be dead, and there won’t be nearly enough of it’s toxins to do anything to me at all.
I need to stop being so paranoid.
