I wonder if that's a regional or an age thing. I grew up in the eastern half of the country, and clock in as "younger than Boomer."
I've only heard folks under sixty refer to oven temperatures in fahrenheit, everything else is Celsius.
Thats because Grandmas cookbook is in Fahrenheit, well mine is anyway
I'm from BC and my experience is the same. I will say however I have stayed in hotels and Airbnb's with thermostats/hot tubs set in F. So whether or not that was deliberate, it's a simple setting to change. You could easily get by with F for all your personal temperature needs, just not talking to others about the weather.
Crazy!
Mid 30s millennial here from the prairies.
When we moved out, the thermostat didn't have Fahrenheit it only had Celsius. My parents could never understand what our house temperature was and it took me forever to figure it out because I grew up with Fahrenheit indoors, Celsius outdoors.
Ovens are only set to Fahrenheit, and we would always check the pool temperature in Fahrenheit
Even now, when my kids have a fever I measure it in Fahrenheit
