Safe Temperature Game

The Safe Temperature Game is designed to raise awareness about cooking food to safe temperatures. You need to cook food to temperatures that are high enough to destroy bacteria, viruses and parasites that may naturally be present in some foods. A food thermometer lets you check the internal temperature of a food to find out if it is cooked properly. Using a food thermometer can help you prevent foodborne illness. Different types of food need to be cooked to different temperatures and this game will help you remember the safe cooking temperatures for several of your favourite foods.

• The key to success in this game is to click on the thermometers as soon as they reach the proper cooking temperature.
