I guess your article wasn't really about what I thought it was
about. My point was that chicken can be cooked at a mere 130F and
still be just as safe as chicken cooked to 175F.

This is important when you cook sous vide. Truthfully, eating
chicken cooked to anything less than 150F is kinda gross after
eating it cooked to 165F most of your life.

This beef chart, though, is a godsend. Fully pasteurized beef
cooked at any temperature.
