A meat thermometer is meant to reside in the meat the whole cooking time.
Food thermometer is a vague term but is likely an instant read type. But you'll find oven thermometers so you can know what temp the oven really is as the temp settings aren't exact. Same for the refrigerator, particularly as those tend to be warmer at the top and cooler at the bottom.
