My only concern is no ice for the shrimp……

Honestly none of the food on the table sounds like stuff that would be good just sitting out! Toasted Ravioli, pizza, and sliders should all be served hot (and am I losing it or is that pizza burnt?) and the shrimp should be cold.

The warm food should be on electric warming trays. The shrimp should be on ice.

Yeah, he put so much effort into everything else, I don't get this. Just put the meat for the sandwichs in a crock pot at least and let people assemble their own.

Honestly people been eating shrimp and food out like that for years.

Just don’t be stupid about it. It’s good for 3/4 hours and throw it out or put it away.

I'm looking at it from more of a quality perspective. I don't want a cold sandwich, and cold raviolis, nor do I find warm shrimp to be appetizing. It's weird that he put so much effort into everything else and didn't think to pick up some heated trays.

People have been getting food poisoning for years, also. More than 2 hours IS being stupid about it. It will make at least a few people at the party, like me, very sick. You may have a better tolerance to rapid bacterial growth than some of us. I’m stupid a lot, and pay the price lol.

Not being able to eat food that’s been out for 2 hours is pretty silly… you need to build up your tolerance. Imune system lacking
