    Comments saying contact the manufacturer, the state health services…
    Or chill, remove the mold, smell, taste, if everything seems good eat it. Inform the store.

    I’ve googled it just to be sure, and it’s safe.

    *not a doctor

      Actually this can be risky. Mold might be cut from hard foods because it usually doesn’t penetrate too deep, if not too overgrown. Soft foods tend to have “tendrils” all over that are often not visible to the naked eye.

        Though how risky is it in reality? Eg for bread, if visible mold means there’s also invisible mold, wouldn’t that imply that there’s a period with just invisible mold that goes unnoticed and eaten? We’re constantly inhaling and consuming mold spores anyways, so is this more of a “I know it’s there and thus deem it icky” or “if it’s soft and has mold, toss it all, and hope that you don’t get unlucky and eat mold you couldn’t see in the first place”?
