How Long To Keep Leftovers

Knowing how long leftovers last can help prevent foodborne illness and reduce waste.

Most cooked foods are safe to eat for about 3-4 days when stored properly in the fridge, but this can vary depending on the type of food and how it’s handled.

Always store leftovers within 2 hours, keep your fridge at or below 40°F (4°C), and when in doubt, throw it out.
