In an effort to reduce the risk of food-borne diseases or allergic reaction, leftovers could remain good for up to three to four days in a refrigerator at 40 degree F. Bacteria usually grow mostly at room temperatures, thus putting the leftover in a refrigerator would slow done their growth. Most of the leftover remain fresh in air-tight containers and pouches.
Here is a list of items which could remain fresh at the following days:
Fresh fish – one to two days, Cooked leftovers – four days, Hard boiled eggs – one week, Steaks or roasts – three to five days, Raw eggs – three to four days, Ham – three to five days, Bacon – seven days, salads like potato, tuna, macaroni, egg – three to five days, Stew meats – one to two days, Chicken or Turkey – one to two days.
