Question: Which of these methods is not safe for thawing food? 

a. in the refrigerator 

b. under cold running water 

c. warm the food and hold at 135°f 

d. as part of the cooking process

Answer Is:

D: Warm the food and hold at 135 F

Explanation:

Depending on what you are thawing, both a microwave and hot water wouldn't be recommended, like meat, if you ran raw meat under hot water or immediately in the microwave it is going to cook a bit but it will still be raw.

Refrigerating is a safe way to thaw but it would take a day or a few to thaw your food, as well as cold water, cold water defrosts at a cool temperature not heating the foot / meat or whatever immediately.

In this case I would say that the unsafe method would be running under hot water.
