Is It Bad To Eat Chicken Wings that Have Sat out For 48 Hours?

They were spicy buffalo chicken wings from Papa Johns and I got them on Thursday Afternoon and ate them Saturday Afternoon (today) is that bad for your health? well they came in tin foil and i only ate 2 and wrapped the rest back up in tin foil dont know if that would change anything. and yes i was too lazy to put them in the fridge. i was already in bed and i was high i thought i would eat them all but i knew i was about to pass out so i just roll them back in the foil and stick them in the box and put under the bed.

1. yes!
2. They're probably loaded with bacteria now. You may get sick.
3. I wouldn't eat them. Were you to lazy to put them in the fridge?
4. gross!
5. umm yeah... did u eat paint chips too as a kid?
6. Well yeah, they were probably off and you may have gotten food poisoning
7. yes it is because the oil that has been put on the chicken comes to the top of the chicken and it will be grose if you eat it like you did.
8. I think you will find out real soon. How are you feeling?
9. YES! I grew up around cheffs and they say you can get sick!
10. I would say you'll be fine with it, especially if you aren't in hot and sticky weather and don't have insect issues in the house. I would say if you reheated them especially you'd be OK, although I probably wouldn't eat them much after 48 hours...
11. yes, the longest you can let a protein sit a room temperature is two hours.
12. yes.if you eat them you will probably become very ill.
13. Yum! My kind of snack. Oh wait, the wings just "sat out", they were not "sat on". Nevermind...
14. ah yeah food should not sit out like that.Hot food hot cold food cold, and to store hot food cool as rapidly as you can. hot food can be held at 140 degrees F or stored at 41 F. Bacteria grow ideally between 70 - 120°F. so yeah you are ready for so food borne illness.
15. Yes, bacteria will form on food, especially meat left sitting out for a long period of time. Hopefully, you will not get sick but if you experience watery diarrhea and cramping please call/see your doctor. It may take up to a day for these symptoms to appear. Keep us posted.
16. yes!!! if meat is left out, it spoils. i would be very surprised if you don't get sick in the next week or so
17. you are probably throwing up right now but i will tell you anyway. YES, THAT IS VERY BAD FOR YOU. You will be very lucky if you are not sick very soon.
18. Don't listen to these worry warts! Just dip them in ranch-it kills bacteria, everybody knows that. Bon Appetit!
