A step too fahrenheit

I am currently cooking two frozen beef and bean burritos (38 cents each) in the microwave. Allow me to quote from the package:

4) Check that burrito is cooked thoroughly. Internal temperature needs to reach 165°F as measured by a food thermometer in several spots.

All of those who plan to check the temperature of their 38-cent burrito in several spots with a food thermometer, please raise your hands.

I thought so.

  • Are additional instructions provided for those who wish to take the extra gourmet step of adding a half a slice of american cheese to the top of the burrito?
  • That made me laugh out loud. No small feat, considering I'm sicker than I've been in a long time, but that was really just hilarious!!!
