It's not much, in fact.  Look ahead...

> input("What is the temperature of the spam?") =3D temperature

This is where it's wrong.  The variable should be on the left side in the
assignment:

temperature =3D input("What is the temperature of the spam?")

>     if temperature > 50:
>         print "The salad is properly cooked."
>     else:
>         print "Cook the salad some more."

This should work.

Peace,
