There are different spoilage bacteria and each reproduces at specific
temperatures. Some can grow at the low temperatures
in the refrigerator or freezer. Others grow well at room temperature and in
the "Danger Zone." Bacteria will grow anywhere they
have access to nutrients and water. Under the correct conditions, spoilage
bacteria reproduce rapidly and the populations can grow
very large. In some cases, they can double their numbers in as little as 30
minutes. The large number of microorganisms and their
waste products cause the objectionable changes in odor, taste, and texture

Microbes are everywhere, everything you touch in the air. If you touched a handle, or didn't heat your pot up to 144 degrees fahrenheit then they are still there, and even if you did there are still spores in it.
