Reheating certain leftovers can pose health risks. Rice, if left at room temperature, can harbor bacteria. Reheating eggs is generally safe if cooked thoroughly, but avoid reheating runny yolks. Seafood requires careful handling and storage. Reheating chicken is acceptable if heated to 175°F. Avoid reheating potatoes, mushrooms, spinach, and leafy greens due to bacterial growth or nitrate conversion.
