Shrimp
Your favorite shrimp recipe might not have the same taste the next day, and there’s a good reason for that. Shrimp is all about texture and mouthfeel, so when you reheat it, that texture can become rubbery and not so tasty.
You should never leave cooked shrimp to be left out for more than 2 hours, and not for more than one hour if the outside temperature is above 90 degrees.
If you just made a delicious recipe with shrimp and you know for a fact that you can’t possibly eat all of it, just wrap it up really well and put it in the fridge immediately.
But remember, just because it stays in the fridge, doesn’t mean that the shrimp lives forever! You can consume it for a maximum of four days!

Very enlightening!!!!!
Carrots and celery you can absolutely use them yet. Just chop them up assuming they are raw one put them in the freezer
Basically what they’re saying for all these is it don’t leave them out on the counter and then eat them later as leftovers well I don’t know anybody who does such a thing of course you refrigerate it and then you reheat it completely based on this article I don’t think I’m going to read or trust anything else on this website
Where is the article
I am 75 years old and have no disease or any medicine to take like any old person does, heating rice which is 3 days old, chicken or potato or carrot or any food that you mention is common in Asian countries and has no adverse effect in our body and I my family and friends are doing it for 75 years of my life that I know. may it be true for some people who have weak guts cause I heard and read some people die by eating leaf over rice or pasta.
This article is ridiculous and instilling fear. I’ve eaten every single one of these foods hundreds of times over the years, heated and unheated, as leftovers, and never, ever have I gotten sick. I’m 75 years old so Ive been doing this for that long. As a matter of fact, many of these foods taste better and have more flavor and intensity when leftover and reheated. Back up your claims with data please!
Please remove me from your list.
I’ve eaten everything on this list as leftovers, except beets, which I don’t like anyway. Maybe I’m just lucky, but I’ve never had a problem.
