This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

You should absolutely not wash your chicken, it is unnecessary and can splash bacteria around. Cook it to 165 F and youre 100% safe from bacteria.

You want 150f for 3 min for white meat. 165 is unnecessary unless you flash cook it, and then put it in the fridge. 165 w8ll be tough and dry. https://blog.thermoworks.com/chicken-internal-temps-everything-you-need-to-know/

Dark meat will be at like 170 when it cooks for flavor so you don't need to worry if it is cooked through it will be safe.

Pretty sure you need to cook chicken for more than 3 minutes

I might be wrong, but I think they meant get the internal temperature to 150 and maintain that for three minutes.

I am not qualified to say whether that's accurate, but I believe the interpretation is.
