A member asked:
How long can raw chicken stay unrefrigerated? how long from putting it in the cart at the grocery store until it needs to be home in the fridge?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Best answer: Would be from a food inspector. Not sure if doctors would give you the best answer. Or if you are fortunate there would be a physician who also happens to be a chicken farmer or food inspector. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
