Cooking softens the exterior of vegetables as well as the cell walls within them. This allows the entry of bacteria and molds that would be kept out by the waxy out layers of the plant.
Cooking also denatures many of the chemicals plants have developed to avoid infection by bacteria and molds. Without this chemical defense, intruders have an easier time making entry.
Finally, cooking can change the pH of plant matter. By making plants less acidic or less alkaline, cooking makes it easier for other creatures (including humans) to consume.

cooked food gets spoiled because it gets easily reacted with the oxygen present in the atmosphere(o2).
