How do you ensure that a beef burger is thoroughly cooked and is safe to eat?

If the outside of the burger is an even brown colour then it is safe to eat

Cut into the burger and if the inside is not pink it is safe to eat
Correct Answer
A. Cut into the burger and if the inside is not pink it is safe to eatExplanation
If the inside of the burger is not pink, it indicates that the beef burger has been cooked thoroughly and is safe to eat.

By cutting into the burger and checking the color of the inside, one can ensure that the burger is cooked to a safe temperature, reducing the risk of foodborne illnesses.Rate this question:
