conditioned room. Is this okay? I am 22 weeks pregnant and concerned about listeria.
 
It's fine, food is good to eat at room temperature for 2 hours after it's been cooked or heated (or taken from the fridge for cold items.) Listeria wouldn't be a threat with this type of food--it's a threat with refrigerated meats like cold cuts. To be safer, you could re heat the meat, but you are still fine to eat it how it is.
