Is it ok to eat heated up coleslaw?

I accidentally left a takeout box with a side of coleslaw in it and heated the entire box without realizing it. After noticing, I placed the coleslaw in the fridge. Is it still safe to eat, or should I throw it out?

It sounds gross like to me and I wouldn’t personally try it myself.

Heating it and then cooling it back down in the fridge or freezer should not be an issue, other than the fact that the cabbage may be a bit soggy or soft.

If you heated it in the original container and the cole slaw was in a styrofoam cup make sure none of that melted and went into the coleslaw. The chemicals in the styrofoam are not good for you and some studies suggest they are carcinogens (can cause cancer). Always remove the food from a styrofoam container and heat it up in the microwave on a plate.

I think as long as it has been heated up by the microwave, or by being pressed up next to hot food. If it’s heated from being left out then STAY FAR FAR AWAY!!!! Cole slaw and potatoe salad are infamous for giving people food poisoning!
