e first lines of their foolish TikTok post we find that it is not reheated rice that is the problem, but instead reheating food that has been left out on the counter overnight...

I've never met an American who left rice or spaghetti or scrambled eggs or anything out over night and then re-heated it to eat. The Chinese have refrigerators, right?

We leave rice in the rice cooker overnight on warm and feel free to eat it the next day. Never had a problem. But then, I also refuse to cook - incinerate - my hamburgers to 160+ degrees. And have never been sick after eating one.
