    Default How long can refrigerated almond milk stay OK out of the fridge?

    I bought a package of 3 half gallons of Silk Pure Almond milk at Costco last night. It says "Perishable, Keep refrigerated" (it's not the type that can sit on the shelf until opening).

    DH put away the groceries last night for me. This morning I saw that he left all of the Almond milk out of the fridge. Thus, it's now been 12 hours since I bought it and our house is at 67 degrees.

    Should it be OK because it's just almond milk or do you think we shouldn't drink it?

    I'd toss it. If it were a couple hours, I would keep it but 12 hours is enough time for it to grow bacteria. 67 degrees is just under room temp -- too warm for perishable items.
