@solderandchaos @tomstafford What I don't know is the relative carbon cost of using (a) hot water or (b) the old-fashioned microwave oven to melt frozen food faster.
I do however suspect that using *cold* water, which also works, beats both of those.
@TimWardCam @solderandchaos @tomstafford According to a recent #NewScientist exchange, the winner is *approximately* to use little or no water (eg for frozen peas) and just be very careful when heating them!

@DamonHD @solderandchaos @tomstafford Hmm. Might work in the lab but cooking the peas is the last three minutes of getting the meal on the table when you are doing a number of other things at the same time, so taking those three minutes to "be very careful" is often not practical. Sticking them in a basin of cold water some time earlier, when you've got the bandwidth to spare, is.

@TimWardCam @solderandchaos @tomstafford Well, none of this thread includes practicality, right? Right?

I ocassionally see one of mine pop up, which always gives me a bit of a kick. The Blade Runner one speaks to the ephemeral nature of the Fedi timeline, Lando I deploy as a gentle fun way to deal with the ocassional but inevitable troll or sealion, and the Solo one doesn't have any point but I just like it. Toot! Perhaps it represents how I feel firing out my white hot takes from my thought-pistol, as a sexy space pirate.

@solderandchaos @tomstafford
Smaller items defrost best in a microwave. Bigger items like a turkey take so long that only cold water should be used or the warmth will start bacteria growth.
This is a Mastodon answer

@tomstafford oh sorry it's a reference from a few years ago when literally everyone on the fediverse got the same message from 'Nicole the Fediverse chick :D'
