Which of these methods is not safe for thawing food? a. under cold running water b. warm the food and hold at 135°f c. as part of the cooking process d. in the refrigerator

B. Warm the food and hold at 135°F

Explanation:

Keeping food at 135 ° F is not a safe method for defrosting food, as 135 ° F is part of the so-called “danger zone” temperature which is the ideal temperature range to promote the rapid reproduction of microorganisms. That is, if you keep food at this temperature, the proliferation of harmful microorganisms will be very high and these microorganisms could spoil the food or cause food infection in those who eat it.
