90°C Wire for Recessed Light?

Hello,
I am installing a recessed light in the kitchen.
The box says the wire must be rated to 90° C (as opposed to 60° C).
The kitchen lights are wired with standard NMB 12/3.
Is this acceptable? I don't see the temp rating on the wire.
Also, would 14/3 NMB be acceptable?
Thanks in advance.

Most NM today is 90c. Unless your home is 12 years old or there abouts.
