You left crab cakes out of frig for about10 hours. Are they still good?

It is not safe to consume crab cakes that have been left out of the refrigerator for 10 hours. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), perishable foods, including cooked crab cakes, should not be left at room temperature for more than two hours. After this time, bacteria can grow rapidly and cause foodborne illness.

Symptoms of foodborne illness can include:

* Abdominal pain

* Diarrhea

* Vomiting

* Fever

* Chills

* Headache

* Muscle aches

If you experience any of these symptoms after eating crab cakes that have been left out of the refrigerator for 10 hours, seek medical attention immediately.
