I found most of these hard to believe without some more solid back up than the author's word. After seeing the comment about leftover chicken needing to be heated to an internal temperature of 165 I knew the author has no idea what she is talking about. Once chicken is cooked initially to a safe internal temperature it has eliminated the original risk. Beyond that if you can eat it cold you certainly do not need to worry about the internal temperature if you are re-heating it.
