Can I eat this 15 hour old hamburger that's sat out all night?

Then he's now posting from the Great Beyond, which says volumes about the resurrective powers of the Whopper. Burger King of Kings.

My wife and I go around about this frequently. I say, unless it smells funny and isn't supposed to, you're good to go. She maintains there's an absolute expiration period on EVERYTHING and I claim it's an elastic proposition depending upon how hungry I am and how much I paid for the item. At $10/pound that deli roast beef can get pretty iridescent before I'm going to agree to pitch it.

I wouldn't recommend it for kids, or the elderly, or people with compromised immune systems. But I can eat a mule and a sack of greens, then chase a boar to Muncie. Know your limitations.
