But when mayo, a perfectly good kid in his own right, starts hanging out with troublemakers (cross-contaminated or low-acid foods), the likelihood that he will toilet-paper your house (i.e., cause food poisoning) is pretty high. So how long can you leave mayo-based dishes at room temperature (or yard temperature) before they’ll go bad? And will they even actually make you sick?Ī lot of us already know that, on its own, commercial mayonnaise poses no threat of food poisoning when kept at room temperature (although it may get a funky flavor you probably want to avoid). Leaving potato salad out at room temperature may be one of the oldest potluck, picnic, BBQ, block party, and cookout concerns around. Potato salad is safe to leave out of the refrigerator for one to two hours max-but it’s not the mayonnaise that will make you sick.
