The time it takes for noticeable spoilage is unknown, since that will depend upon the type of food and what spoilage microorganisms are around.

For safety reasons, don't leave the food out at room temperature for more than 2 hours.

If a food requires refrigeration, it should not be left at room temperature for more than 2 hours. Less time is better. The food is spoiled when you determine it is no longer edible.
