Leave food sitting out no longer than two hours. 2. Keep hot foods hot with a buffet server or warming dish. Periodically check the temperature of the food with a food thermometer. 3. Keep cold foods cold by placing the serving dish in a bowl of ice. 4. Choose serving containers carefully. Metal insulates heat and cold better than glass does.   Need practical advice on diet and exercise? Want creative solutions for stress and other lifestyle issues?
