BELOW IS THE CLASSIC DIAGRAM OF THE DANGER ZONE FOR SAFE/UNSAFE FOOD HANDLING.

THERMOMETERS: Bacteria Control Table
TEMP. DEGREES in F. DESCRIPTION
212boiling point of water
165-212most bacteria destroyed by cooking temperatures
140-165warm temperatures prevent growth but some bacteria surrive
120-140some bacterial growth may occur and many can surrive in this range
40-145DANGER ZONE with rapid growth of bacteria and production of toxins.
Food should move through this temperature range within 2 to 3 hours§ to avoid spoilage.
40-60some growth of food poisoning bacteria may occur
32-40cold temperature slows the growth of spoilage causing bacteria
0-32Freezing temperature, bacterial growth stopped but many can still surrive
and become active and dangerous as the temperature increases during defrosting.

FORMULA TO CONVERT FAHRENHEIT TO CENTIGRADE
C=5/9*(F-32)

FORMULA TO CONVERT CENTIGRADE TO FAHRENHEIT
F=32+(C*9/5)

TO CONVERT FAHRENHEIT TO CENTIGRADE
enter the Fahrenheit value for F:

TO CONVERT CENTIGRADE TO FAHRENHEIT
enter the Centigrade value for C:

If the converter does not calculate you will need to go back one window and then return (forward) to this window again , and then the Javascript will function. This is called a glich.
On a Mac, hold down the mouse button until the little "back - forward" window appears and use it.
