In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Stick the meat thermometer into the thickest part of the meat. Wait for the reading to determine if your meat has finished cooking. Sanitize the thermometer with hot water and dish soap after you take the reading. Pull the meat away from its heat source while you take the measurement so it doesn't affect your reading. Measure the temperatures of steaks, chops, or roasts until they are at the correct temperature. This includes beef, pork, lamb, or veal. Once the meat is at temperature, let it rest for 3 minutes. Don't eat rare steaks if you have a weak immune system. Break apart larger chunks of ground meat to make them cook faster. Make sure ground meat is browned all the way through before consumption. Every cut of poultry needs to be cook thoroughly since it can cause food poisoning when consumed raw. Make sure the poultry is an even color throughout and that the juices inside are clear.
Summary: Check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer before serving. Cook red meat to 145F (63C). Make sure ground red meat is above 160F (71C). Prepare poultry to 165F (74C).

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Pick fabric or leather moccasin loafers for a purely casual shoe. Opt for suede, lightweight textures, and plain leather loafers if you want shoes that are adaptable to both casual and dressed-up looks. Select patent leather loafers for a more formal style. Wear suede and lightweight textured loafers in the spring and summer. Look for sturdy material like leather if you'll be wearing them in cold seasons. Loafers with pointed toes are a more elegant style than rounded toes. High-heeled loafers can look more dressy than flats, especially in shiny leather. Moccasins are casual and make good house shoes. Penny loafers, apron loafers and Italian loafers go with casual or dressy outfits. Tuxedo loafers in patent leather are for formal events. Penny loafers have a leather strip over the front, with a slot that can fit a penny (hence their name). They make a great go-to shoe in oxblood leather. Moccasin loafers have a weave, or "vamp," across the top of the shoe. Apron loafers have an extra piece of material across the top of the shoe, and the toes are finished off with stitches. Italian loafers have a metal clasp over the top of the shoe. Stick to simple versions of this shoe in classic blacks and browns. Wear these for business for example, with dress pants or casually, for instance with jeans. Choose basic shades or colors for more adaptability. Pick bolder hues if you plan to wear them seldomly, and want your loafers to steal the show. However, avoid gaudy colors and patterns such as hot pink or animal prints which can veer into tacky territory. Shades of black and dusty brown are versatile and classic. Navy is versatile in leather and suede. Burgundy can adapt to different looks and adds a pop of color. Pale colors like sea green and powder blue are casual, summery options. Neutrals can be mixed and matched with many colors in your outfit. Put the shoes on in the store, and test them by walking around a bit. If you're buying shoes online, measure the length and width of your feet. Check the measurements against the measurement of the shoes. Some shoes can be more comfortable after they're broken in. However, you don't want them to be too large, too tight, or quickly uncomfortable. If your feet are in between sizes, pick the next half size up. If you have feet that are slightly different sizes, opt for the larger sized-shoe. Get adhesive pads for this purpose, which you place in the heel of the shoe for the smaller foot. It's not advisable to buy cheap loafers (or leather shoes). You may be wearing them without socks at times, and they need to be resilient in warmth and sweat. The cost of loafers can vary hundreds of dollars, so check online reviews to make sure you're going to get your money's worth. Quality leather shapes well to your foot, resulting in more comfort. It also wears well over time.
Summary: Choose a material. Select a shoe style. Pick a color. Try them on. Pay for longevity.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Place a piece of ice in a sealable plastic bag to avoid any water damage caused by drips from the ice. Take a piece of ice and slowly rub all over the gum. The coldness of the ice will harden the gum, making it easier to chip away later. If the leather item is small enough, place it in a plastic bag and then put it in the freezer for about an hour. Putting the item in the freezer will have a similar effect as the ice--the gum will harden and become easier to chip away from the leather. If you don't have a plastic bag, you can rub the ice directly on the gum. Make sure that if the ice drips onto the leather, you wipe it up immediately, as water left on leather for too long can stain it. Use a hard, flat edge to remove the gum from the leather. In a pinch, a fingernail will do the trick, as will a credit card, butter knife or even a metal spoon. Avoid very sharp items or else you may gouge the leather. The hardened gum should scrape off easily. If you chose to put your piece of leather in a bag and into the freezer, remove it and chip it away with a hard, flat-edged tool as listed above. After you have done this, proceed with all of the other steps listed in this method. Use a damp, clean cloth to rub some saddle soap onto the spot where the gum was until you have a light lather on the leather. Clean any remaining spot where the gum was stuck to the leather with the saddle soap lather, using circular motions to rub it into the spot. Scrub any small bits of gum remaining with a soft, dampened toothbrush. The toothbrush bristles will work to dislodge the lathered gum. The gum should be completely removed when you are done with the toothbrush. Wipe off the saddle soap with a second, damp clean cloth. You don't want to wash the lather away with water because water, if left on the leather for too long, will damage the color of the leather. The leather conditioner will help to ensure that there is no discoloration caused by the gum, soap lather, and damp cloth.
Summary:
Rub the gum with ice. Chip away the hardened gum. Apply some saddle soap to the spot. Use the saddle soap to get rid of any gum remnants. Use a toothbrush for the hard to remove bits. Remove the saddle soap lather. Use a leather conditioner on the spot after it has dried.
