my huspend thawed a pork roast in the microwave and forgot about it. it was in there for an hour and a half is it still good

When he took it out it was still warm from defrosting it. Was wondering if it is still good.

Yes! Raw proteins can be left out to thaw for about 4 hours as long as it doesn't fall into the temperature danger zone (41-135 degrees Fahrenheit). If it has only been out for an hour and a half the center might still be frozen or at least cold so don't worry, you won't get sick! :D
