leftover burrito, worried about food poisoning.

I might just be over reacting but I'm pretty hungry, and in the kitchen is a burrito that was cooked last night but not eaten. If I re heat this burrito and then eat it, will I feel sick? there's something about heating and re heating ground beef that's been sitting out that doesn't sit right with me. I'm very hungry though and would like to eat this burrito, serious replies only and quickly please.

Umm... I'd go with not eating yesterday's burrito.

Very serious, it's fine.

If it's been in the fridge--Enjoy!
If it's been sitting out for twenty-four hours--Destroy!

It's better to err on the side of caution dude. I'd rather be hungry than pooing my brains out for the next hour or so. And that doesn't even factor in the possibility that reheating it might be bad.

Your conscience does not always know what's best. For example, my conscience told me not to kill that hooker.
