METHOD FOR HANDLING FOODS

The invention relates to a method for handling foods, comprising the following steps: providing a plurality of thermometers, each comprising an identifier that is specific to the thermometer, wherein the relevant thermometer comprises at least one core temperature sensor and one external temperature sensor, providing at least one food in which one of the thermometers is inserted, referred to in the following as the "inserted thermometer", wherein the core temperature sensor of the inserted thermometer is arranged to be further inside the food than the external temperature sensor, continuously measuring an external temperature using the external temperature sensor of the plurality of thermometers, continuously wirelessly transmitting the external temperature together with the identifier of the relevant thermometer to a control unit, transferring the food together with the inserted thermometer from a first receiving space having a first receiving space temperature into a second receiving space having a second receiving space temperature, wherein the two receiving space temperatures differ from one another, thermometer assignment: assigning, by means of the control unit, which of the plurality of thermometers has been transferred as the "inserted thermometer" together with the food on the basis of the measured external temperature of the plurality of thermometers.
