When my sister was a young adult and still living at home she told Mom "I will never have left-overs in my house!". Fifty plus years later I believe she has been true to her word. I'm not sure how she does it. Either she throws away a lot of food or she has portions down to a science. I don't believe she even keeps Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner around after the initial event.
It's NOT that way in our house. I might see Thanksgiving dinner 3 or 4 more times. 😊 That being said I am very leery of summer meal left overs, especially potato salad.
The USDA has some good summer food safety tips at this link: Food Safety.
As I mentioned at the top of this post: My Hyper Sense of Smell Says "Toss it Out"! It drives my wife crazy because she never smells what I do but when I tell her there is something rotten in the fridge she goes through it and always find one or even two items confirming my sense of smell.
