It shouldn't be difficult, but it should be foolproof. Someone not paying attention could mistakenly get a Fahrenheit reading expecting Celsius, and serve undercooked food to others.

In food applications, I should think that even the most hopeless cook can tell the difference between 75 degrees F and 75 degrees C. One is cooked and the other is room temperature.
