What's the safest way to thaw frozen meats quickly?
user
Have you tried a microwave?
assistant
I don't have a microwave. Any other ways?
user
A fast food restaurant kitchen might have a microwave, or another device that heats up food quickly.  Alternatively you could put the meat into a bowl with warm water and wait.
assistant
Is it safe to thaw in warm water like that? Won't bacteria form?
user
Yes, bacteria can form, especially if you leave the food in warm water for a long time.   But I'm not sure why you want to thaw meat in the first place, it would be much better to just cook the meat from frozen as soon as you get it, since that will be more delicious and safe.
assistant
How can I cook it safely when it's frozen from the start?
