Is it safe to consume used fruit jam that is taken out of fridge for more than 1 hour everyday?

Updated by SFA
Consumers are advised to store and consume fruit jam as intended by the manufacturer. You should avoid the practice of taking out used fruit jam from the fridge and leaving it at room temperature for more than half to one hour before consuming as this may promote the growth of bacteria and mould. If you have already left the jam out, do monitor for any signs of spoilage. Should you observe any spoilage, you are advised to avoid consuming and discard the jam immediately.
