I was wondering, for how many days can I keep cooked food such as rice, broth, and sandwiches in the fridge, and when should I discard it?

Someone told me it should not exceed 3 days, is that true?

Thanks :)

^ ewwwwwwww...........

No longer than two days i say.
Cooked meat - 2 days maximum i say.
Broth/soup after one day
rice - 3 days max [if you have to]
sandwiches go stale - so try to eat it the next day

If it's over 2 days, I suggest you freeze it. And then pop it into the micorwave when you need to use it.

Thanks :):) Why kept rice-sandwiches in the fridge its not health at all,,,I suggest to you not to keep any cocking food in fridge that is not-health at all,,,even if its for one day-Maximum you keep it for 12hrs that all!!

Fridges are used to store fruits,,,vigtables,,,milk and Ice-cream!!:)
