No, just read the thread. PeterNem has posted an article that confirms the problem with rice.
Here is an extract from it:
Please, the article can be questioned. When the rice was bought, there are almost no (very low amount) of germs in it. If it was stored at room temperature and covered then, it is still not enough to cause food poisoning. The toxins as the article claim is not exactly produce in the food but when they get to the system.
The human body is partly able to get away with this via Present of dilute HCL acid in the stomach that helps breakdown any potential microbe. Even if the microbes manages to breach this system, it is still not enough to cause food poisoinig.
How many people eat microwaved rice? A lot , and yet incidence of food poisoining is only about 1500 cases in the uk year. Now this is a small number when compared to other illness.
Coming back to my point, the article is not entirely accurate and i still maintain that heating the food PROPERLY helps destroy the microbe. I did part of this in one of my essays in Uni.
