Chia seeds are an unprocessed, whole-grain food that can be absorbed by the body as seeds (unlike flaxseeds). One ounce (about 2 tablespoons) contains 139 calories, 4 grams of protein, 9 grams fat, 12 grams carbohydrates and 11 grams of fiber, plus vitamins and minerals. The mild, nutty flavor of chia seeds makes them easy to add to foods and beverages.
Kitchen Fact: The safe internal temperature for cooked pork is 145Â° Fahrenheit. All cuts of pork, with the exception of ground pork, should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145Â°F, and the temperature should be measured at the thickest part of the meat not touching any bone.
The Right Temperature. A pork tenderloin is perfectly cooked when a quick-read thermometer, inserted at the thickest part of the cut, reads 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Although 160 F is the traditional standard for cooked meat, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has determined that pork cooked to between 140 and 145 F is still safe to eat. Cooking meat to 160 F can lead to very dry meat.
