Question

question 27
which of the following is incorrect?
cooking destroys most microbes.
the cooking temperature is determined by what is being cooked.
keeping foods out of the temperature danger zone can decrease foodborne illnesses.
seafood has the highest recommended cooking temperatures of all foods.

Explanation:

Cooking at high - enough temperatures does destroy most microbes. The cooking temperature depends on the type of food. Keeping foods out of the 40°F - 140°F (4.4°C - 60°C) danger zone helps prevent foodborne illnesses. However, while seafood needs proper cooking, other foods like poultry (e.g., chicken) often have higher recommended cooking temperatures (165°F or 74°C for poultry compared to 145°F or 63°C for most seafood).

Answer:

Seafood has the highest recommended cooking temperatures of all foods.
