'Very hot' is meaningless without proper measurement.


Darn.
Please identify the scale, you know like Fahrenheit, Celsius or Kelvin,
that uses "very hot" as a marker on it.



It's called the 'Close Enough' scale.


But to most people, "very hot" means you have to blow on it before putting
it in your mouth, or you need protection before you pick it up, or you don't
fiddle around with an open container between your knees while sitting in a
car
