As long as the temperature inside reaches 60C (140 F) for a short while, it doesn't matter if the meat is completely well done or still a bit rare.
That is the temperature where germs and bacteria die.

I was warshing my hands in the restroom at work the other day * and, as usual, I’m using cold water because it’s a hundred and ten fucking degrees out in the warehouse and the cool water feels good.
And the busybody salesguy at the other sink is all:
“You need to use hot water”
“No, actually I don’t “
“Yes, because hot water kills germs”
“Dude, you aren’t gonna plunge your hands into water hot enough ta kill germs! Not if ya want them back with skin on!”


* after peeing. Ya know ya needed ta know that.

When I was in NH my folks were using the spring that started a nearby brook as the water supply. Besides being delicious and consistent when lack of warmth or rain was making wells go dry, it was So Cold I think the germs were refrigerated. Wouldn’t soap and water of whatever temperature be enough for everyday purposes? I mean if you’re not doing surgery or tearing salad with your bare hands or something.

Yeah, soap n’ water is plenty good enough for daily cleaning.

I think the idea behind using warm water is that it helps soften the oils on your skin that the germs bind themselves to, making it easier to wash them off. That's the theory, anyway. Honestly, I think even cold water, with vigorous enough lathering, does just fine.

It came with a lemon slice, so there.

Not sure this goes here, but hey...

I'd try it.

Well, the pizza with wieners alone is being called "Pizza Viennese" in some pizzerias in Italian holiday hot spots. You can even get in some weird pizzerias there pizza with french fries as topping.

Both are obviously nothing a native Italian would eat, or admit to like eating.

I'd try it.

That actually looks intriguing.

Kroger will start selling longer-lasting avocados this week

The avocados treated with a plant-based solution that helps slow down decay will be available in about 1,100 of Kroger's nearly 2,800 stores.

This week the company will start selling avocados treated with a plant-based solution that helps slow down decay. The fruit will be available in about 1,100 of Kroger's nearly 2,800 stores. The grocery chain also plans to sell longer-lasting asparagus and limes in a Cincinnati pilot program.

When treated with the innovative coating — a colorless, odorless powder that is mixed with water and sprayed, brushed or otherwise applied to lock in moisture and block oxygen — the produce should last at least twice as long as regular avocados.

Kroger will sell the avocados, asparagus and limes at the same price as untreated versions of the produce. It is testing various marketing programs to determine how customers will know that they are buying something different.

Apeel, which makes the coating, is a seven-year-old startup that raised $110 million from investors that include the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Andreessen Horowitz, Viking Global Investors and others.

Hmm.
