Is my mayo bad?

I left my opened mayo in a kitchen cabinet for about 24 hours. I opened the cap and it smelled good, I put it in the fridge.

Would you use it?
 
Depends. Is it homemade mayonnaise? Throw it out, that shit's gone bad. Is it store-bought mayonnaise? It's fine; there's enough preservatives to keep it safe for one night. I wouldn't leave it out longer than that, but it won't kill you. Of course, it's only like 3 bucks a jar, so if you're that concerned, just buy a new one.
 
I wouldn't use it, but that is because there is only one food I put mayo on and I no longer partake in french fries.

But, I'm sure it's fine. It takes longer than 24 hours for food to spoil probably.

I've left mine out for days sometimes, no issues. It's a risk, but it's probably about as risky as eating cookie dough. aka I've never gotten sick from it.

But you'll probably die (just covering myself for when the lawyers show up).
 
if it smells good your fine. i left mayo out overnight a few times i ate it like normal. now if u left a spoon or something in it i would be cautious.
 
Its probably fine. In high school I worked at the local BK and the big mayo container sat out all day with no cooling. Like others said it is full of preservatives.

eh? I thought mayo is perfectly fine in room temperature? In supermarket, i never see Mayo sitting in a refrigerator.

Presumably the stuff in the supermarket has not yet been opened. :hmm:

Of course the OP's mayo is probably fine; I would go for it.

I wouldn't trust someone who puts mayo on fries.



As for the OP, commercial mayo sitting out of the fridge overnight in a kitchen that is cooler than 90º is fine.

Ketchup is garbage; and nobody who partakes in some kind of sugary, tomato goop is to be trusted. Mayo is only acceptable on fries.
 
Nope - just slather it on that supermarket sushi, gulp it down with that 2 day old milk and down a few scoops of artificially flavored "vanilla" ice "cream".
 
That shit is rather rare and expensive, I wouldn't risk throwing it out over avoiding simultaneous ass-squirts and vomiting.
 
Guys, store bought mayonnaise doesn't even have to be refrigerated. Bacteria can't grow in it.

OP is fine.
