For me it’s more about solid-to-liquid ratio, soups are often “thick” but still liquidy overall. Stews are cooked down until there’s basically no broth, essentially just a gravy. My personal distinction is that stews can be eaten on a plate, soup can’t be.

It might be a stew when it’s done, served as pictured, I’d call it a soup. Sorry bout it

4°C is 39.2°F, which, at least in the imperial system, is less than 40. And yeah, different governments have different regulatory standards, this is very very very common. Certainly the difference between 40° & 43° is less crucial than the difference between 40° & 100° and of course all foods (and the bacteria involved in their spoilage) are different (some things are considered safe up to 45°F for instance), but you have to plan for the worst-case scenario to be safest. And as I’ve said elsewhere, this is the industry standard, which is naturally (in America at least) driven by fear of liability litigation more than science, so it’s bound to be stricter than is perhaps normally necessary.

And most meat dishes, egg dishes, pretty much anything containing dairy, most raw/cooked produce and produce-containing dishes, opened canned goods, etc, etc. Way more than just “starchy foods”

If your fridge is warmer than 40°F, it’s not working properly. Commercially, prepared food is acceptable to use/sell for a week in the fridge before it has to be thrown out. Practically, this time is often longer, but a week is the safest bet.

Yeah, I mean there’s only one hour of real danger there and those are the food service rules, so they’re going to be as strict as possible. They also teach that prepared food can’t be served after a week in the fridge, even though it often lasts longer before spoiling. I personally don’t enjoy puking and shitting my brains out, especially as a direct result of my own avoidable actions, so I play it safe.

Don’t eat lasagna that’s been between 40° and 140° F for more than 4 hours!

Condescending unnecessary “correction” aside, I’m glad you agree with me.
- Comment on WTF is a rural town in the USA? 1 week ago:
Narrower roads and shorter buildings is a start, now simplify the architecture, add space between the buildings, get rid of the “downtown” apartment buildings, definitely ditch that bike lane, is that a traffic light in the distance, lol. If you can’t imagine the smell of livestock shit permeating the air, you’re not really looking at rural America.

The first picture isn’t very typical of rural towns either.

Exactly, I discounted it originally because the handle was the first thing I saw, but then I looked at the tines and it was no contest.

It’s not even about that, it has the longest tines by far. The others are fine dessert forks, but I need that long tine action for an entree baby!
