    Some foods can safely have moldy bits cut off. Hard cheeses like Parmesan or Cheddar are fine if you cut off about a centimeter past where the visible mold stops. Things that are soft like bread though, should absolutely be tossed if they show mold.

    • @freezepaladin
      @freezepaladin Місяць тому +150

      There is no guarantee to it. What makes moldy food dangerous is not the mold itself but the toxic byproduct from the fermentation (decomposition) process. Even if you cut off a centimeter past the visible mold, the toxic byproduct could have spread beyond that part. However, even toxic substances can be safely consumed depending on the type and amount because our body has the capabilities to neutralize them. A naturally produced toxin that is also one of the most lethal known toxins to mankind is the botulinum toxin produced by Clostridium botulinum. Botulism itself is a rare occurrence and the botulinum toxin can be destroyed by heating but I personally do not want to take chances on getting that.

    • @justinblin
      @justinblin Місяць тому +104

      @@freezepaladinmold consists of a visible portion (the spore producing section) and an invisible portion (mycelium). The toxin is produced by both the visible and invisible portions of the mold and won’t spread much further.
      In soft foods like bread and most fruit, the invisible mycelium will spread throughout everything before you see the spore producing section, making it all potentially toxic. In foods like hard cheeses, carrots, etc, the mycelium can’t spread much more than an inch or two from the spore producing section, meaning most of the rest of the food does NOT have any toxin.

      It most probably won‘t. Fungi are way harder to kill than Bacteria, and the spores of both are another step harder to kill than that, since they‘re not only for reproduction, but also for surviving a non-ideal environment until they get to better times or places.

    In Finland we have this mold that lives in wooden structures that are made of Spruce. This particular mold causes widely spreading mycelium tentacles that spread spores that are neurotoxins in the air. Once your home has this mold it needs to be burned down and only the clothes you have can be salvaged. Everything else must be burned because it spreads so easily. Beds, sheets, matrices. shoes, even TV's and electric machines will be lost. It is visible with UV-light and it forms a round central unit from where the mycelium tentacles spread all directions.

      Indeed some types of mold can get in your body and cause symptoms, but black mold, as said, generally lives in environments rich in cellulose and wouldn’t grow in your lungs as they are certainly not an hospitable place for them plus the immune system would start fighting it immediately. In conclusion black mold growing in your lungs is not possible, therefore not dangerous in that sense.
      At last, the main problem would be the mycotoxins that can harm the body but, in moderate doses, won’t do serious harm; still I do get your point that putting that as “not so dangerous” is not ideal as the mold can and will make you develop serious symptoms over time.
