                                According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), perishable foods like milk should not be left in the 'danger zone' between 40°F and 140°F (4°C to 60°C) for more than two hours. Knowing if milk is safe to drink at 45 degrees depends entirely on whether that measurement is in Fahrenheit or Celsius, a distinction that has huge implications for food safety.
