But chances are, itâs not. âA lot of the brain doesn't have nerve endings,â Tietjen says. âSo most headaches are going to be caused by something else.â. Itâs not common, but bad pain in the brain can be a symptom of a stroke or blood clot.
Q: How can I tell when the turkey is done? A: There are several ways to determine if the turkey is cooked through. For safety and doneness the internal temperature, as registered on a meat thermometer, must reach a minimum of 165 degrees, though most cooks will prefer up to 180 degrees F. in the thigh. The center of the stuffing should reach 165 degrees F in the cavity, and the center of the breast is done at 165 to 170 degrees. You can also prick the leg joint with a fork, and if the juices run just slightly pink or clear, the turkey is done.
1 A whole turkey is safe when cooked to a minimum internal temperature of 165 Â°F as measured with a food thermometer. 2  Check the internal temperature in the innermost part of the thigh and wing and the thickest part of the breast. If using an oven-proof food thermometer, place it in the turkey at the start of the cooking cycle. 2  It will allow you to check the internal temperature of the turkey while it is cooking.
