Conversely, some things should not be articles either. I tried looking up the temp for cooking chicken, and the amount of 20-minute reads out there to find out it’s 165° for chicken breast, is too damn high.
Same but when you specifically ask for celcius/centigrade in the search prompt, and the first two pages of results either give the temperature in F or just as ⁰ without any units.
The problem in that case is SEO. What you need is a table of cooking temps or just a single number, but what ranks high is a web page that mentions "cooking", "chicken" and "temperature" a million times.
(Or be like Gen X and keep a cook book and a scattered assortment of notes in a drawer)
Thank you for elaborating and proving my point.
i am 12 can you make a video that tells me the chicken cooking temp
I bet the article was AI slop
Some thermometers have common safe cooking temps printed on them, its very helpful
I've got most of them memorized but still have a cooking temp chart on a fridge magnet. There it is, at a glance.
