I've been eating second and third day old rice all my life with no ill effects! I call bullshit.

WTF, I eat reheat rice everyday for 7 days after I make it...

I think it is technically possible for bacteria and such to grow in rice, but the protein count is so low, i think it highly unlikely.

I cook it and leave it out for 2 days with no problems.

I eat reheated rice too. It is annoying cooking up a cup or two just for the day. I like to make the whole box and store it in the fridge so I can have it on hand throughout the week.

Get an electric rice cooker. Just throw in the rice, pour in some water and hit start and you have warm fresh rice in 20 minutes.

yeah this is what i do

thing is, if something is off, you can normally tell, especially with rice, you can tell when its been in there too long, i read somewhere (think it was in M&F) that you can store rice in the fridge for upto a week, i reheat a lot of my food, like i'll grill salmon and chicken breasts 2-3 at a time and save half, same with beans and anything else i cook that i won't eat in the same meal

when i'm back home and mom cooks a chilli con carne, or curry, we will save any of that that is not eaten, i've been eating reheated food all my life, never had a problem doing it

I cook rice once a week when i prepare and pack my meals. Never had a prob. With rice i would suggest that you let it completly cool with the lid slightly ajar before storing it in the fridge. Dont put hot rice in a container, close it and put it in the firdge. The steam will condence into it and create excess moisture in the rice which can make it go bad and it'll smell funky. This from my experience.

A rice cooker is cool but theres no way I am gonna carry a rice cooker to and from work when I have chicken and rice for lunch. Re-heat it, fuck it, who gives a shit, if you have strong enough stomach, it wont hurt.

Reheated rice causes cancer just like everything else.
