I made some pasta salad two weeks ago and put it in a that ziplock tupperware container thing... the cheap one. I smelled the pasta and looked at it and it seems fine but I want to be sure and dont want to get sick if i eat it.

Please tell me you're joking. Nothing made with mayonnaise is safe to eat after a few days, much less two weeks.
What you have in that container is technically known as, "Salmonella in a Sack."

Young man, you ought to be thoroughly ashamed, i dont know how you have the nerve to embarrass yourself with such a question!
The answer as you should be grasping by now, is no, absolutely not!
Throw it away & cook yourself some nice fresh vegetables!
As a rule, 3 days is the maximum for keeping cooked food. However, you should be very careul with rice - if you dont heat it back up VERY thoroughly you'll be at high odds for a nice dose of food poisoning.
Now please, wash that container out thoroughly & then start making plans to either move home to your mother's or get a girlfriend who can help you with these domestic affairs.
Best wishes (& more aptly, luck) to you.

If it doesn't have hair, smell and didn't walk out to greet you it may not have turned. Will your cat eat it? If it had mayonnaise and you don't keep your fridge below 10 degrees Kelvin then it is definitely trash. Even if you made it with olive oil, you should likely still trash it. Next time make a little less.

Never store stuff in the can it came in, it never keeps as long so NO. Even if you had put it in a clean air-lock container 2 weeks would be pushing it.. If it smells OK and you're starving your nose won't usually let you give yourself food poisoning though..

It will most likely take on an excessive starchy smell & taste after that amount of time. If it "seems" to be ok, still, 2 weeks is a long time. I always go by: "IF IN DOUBT, THROW IT OUT!"
Besides, I've had ecoli and food poisoning TWICE... it's NOT FUN, believe me!! Toss it!

nope toss it or take pictures of it as an discovered artifact in your fridge!
if unsure just toss it.. or you'll get ill then you'll be unhappy... always eat by the sell by date to say the least.. if there's none always remember 1 week is pushing it!
so 2.. nah you can use it now to scare people and solicitors away who knock on your door.

Set the pasta salad out for the roaches and they will all die too.
