Will the inside of one's mouth blister and burn at the same temperature as one's external skin?

Asked by robmandu (21331points) April 3rd, 2009

Food that’s too hot to hold in one’s hands is just right for eating. So, without taking on such an experiment personally, I was just wondering if something hot enough to scald someone’s hands (1st or 2nd degree) would cause the same damage to one’s mouth?
