So, I think some of you guys are risk takers. Thrill seekers, if you will.
But, does this extend to taking chances with . . . what you eat?
For instance, I once purchased a "Cornuporkia" sandwich at a deli in Crawfordsville that was at the time my favorite. It was essentially a cuban pork sandwich with pulled pork, black forest ham, swiss, mustard, mayo, and pickles. To this, I had them add bacon, thus making it the cornuporkia. So far, so good. No real risk there, right?
What if you bought it at lunch time on a Friday, but then found it on your couch under a stack of newspapers on Sunday afternoon?
Would you eat it? What if it were you most favorite thing of all?
Well, I did it. And I survived.
So fact forward to today. I didn't eat yesterday's turkey, swiss, and bacon sandwiches I prepared for my lunch. Naturally, there were not refrigerated from the time I removed them from the fridge to go to work on Tuesday until lunch time on Wednesday.
I'm now waiting for trouble to begin. I figured it was okay because of the protective layer of mayonnaise shielding the bread from the bacon and turkey, so I should be fine.
