    Anxious about rice (Bacillus Cereus)

    I bought a packet of rice and cooked some about 5 months ago. While cleaning today, I found some of the cooked rice which must have fallen behind the cooker..

    Would this bacteria survive that long?

    Does all rice contain Bacillus Cereus?

    I read somewhere that cooking it ago 100degrees centigrade wont kill it! I normally overcook my rice so would that have done it?

    I used a dettol wipe but I am not sure if that is effective or not.

    ps: I never used to see rice like chicken but I handle it the same way after reading an article in a paper.

    I would assume the cooked rice will have dried out after all this time and your not going to actually eat it are you. It is amazing how some people live in the most disgusting conditions and never catch anything so you have nothing to worry about.

    I won't handle raw meat without disposable gloves on and then I disinfected everything that might have come into contact with the meat.
