Tuna Dilemma

Yesterday one of the doctors had a lunch "situation". His wife made him a tuna fish sandwich and told him to refrigerate it. He forgot. When it came time for lunch, he did not know if he should eat it. His wife's rule is that if a tuna sandwich is not refrigerated, it has to be eaten in three hours. It was now five hours. He came up to the front office for "counseling". Since we are a bit older than him, we recounted tales of bringing food to high school and having it sit in a locker for hours on end. By the time you ate your tuna sandwich, there was a wet spot in the center of the bread where the mayo had soaked through. We all lived and in fact prospered. Those were the days. Most of the office decided that five hours was a safe time frame. I asked him to recall the days after Hurricane Sandy and how people ate food that was a week old and lived to tell the tale. He ate it and had no problem.
