A
1 hour
B
2 hours
C
3 hours
D
4 hours
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -TCS foods that are ready-to-eat can be safely consumed in a four hour window. If they have not been temperature controlled, they should be discarded after four hours.

Detailed explanation-2: -Food held between 5oC and 60oC for 4 hours or more must be thrown away. The time between 5oC and 60oC is cumulative-that means you need to add up every time the food has been out of the fridge, including during preparation, storage, transport and display.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cook all TCS food to required temperatures and times. Maintain hot TCS food at 135°F or above. Properly cooked roasts may be held at 130°F or above.
