    I won’t pretend to understand what you go through but I’m strongly sympathetic.

    Question: from your perspective, would taking a course or two about food safety, so that a person thoroughly understands the science behind food spoiling and becoming toxic, would that help in any way with some of the thoughts/fears about eating leftovers? I fully expect you to say no, and I would definitely believe you. But I’m still curious about your perspective.

      I took several in college, which made the issue much worse tbh. Now I know for sure that if x food product can spoil in a time frame that I’ll not be around to verify that my refrigerator was working the whole time, then I just can’t do it.
