Bacteria cause infections, many of which can be deadly. Every exposure to antibiotics carries the risk of an immune reaction that can be deadly. As well, every bacteria produces particular proteins that cause upset stomach, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Low level bacterial infections that go unnoticed can cause chronic symptoms that are difficult to diagnose.
Bacteria can be introduced at any stage of food collection, manufacturing/packaging, storage, or during preparation of food at home or in restaurants. As well, foods can be cross-contaminated during preparation, for example, raw chicken juices can transfer to salad fixings if the counter top, bowl, or utensils are not clean. Then, after preparation and cooking, many foods spoil between the time of preparation and the time the fixed foods are put into the refrigerator.
Bacteria continue to multiply in warm to hot settings. If food has been left out too long after cooking or preparation, the bacteria is not killed by putting the food in the refrigerator. During re-heating, or when a cold food is next ingested, the bacteria that had started to grow before can still cause bacterial food poisoning.
Many people believe that their eyes and noses are the best diagnostic measures to judge whether a food is "bad"-- if it looks "okay" and doesn't smell "bad" most people take the chance to eat the food. But instead of sight and smell, people should rely more on knowledge of proper food preparation and storage -- especially the time they have to store after cooking.
