Would you eat mold from spoiled food?

Are you 12? This seems like a common eighth grade realization.

I think the OP is a kid too.

Obviously there are many different types of mold - some helpful and some toxic.

It seems time to take a hiatus, and maybe read some books.

The kiddies are back for the summer break.

But did you know that penicillin is made from mold?

Yes. Penicillin the antibiotic, is made from the very mold that comes from spoiled food or water coming into contact with surfaces.

So, if you were disgusted by my question, or think mold is hazardous to your health, how is mold marketed as medicine different?

No.

According to the internet:

Penicillin's safety comes from its controlled production and purification processes, as well as extensive testing for safety and effectiveness. Moldy fruit, for example, with its uncontrolled mold growth, potential for mycotoxins, bacterial contamination, and lack of sterility, poses significant health risks.

You eat mold all the time. Very few people are eating sterile food.

I was just about to post this. Why waste perfectly good cheese? Never gotten sick from food either.

You should do your own research for class.
But I love blue cheese!

OP this is something you should have learned in grade school. Keep reading a few more chapters so you understand the science.

Wait until you get to the chapter that the earth is round.

Op, did you write a paper about this for school? It’s a solid introduction, but you should know that most everyone knows this about penicillin. (We get many medications from plants and fungi.) dcum is going to be a tough on you so I hope you have thick skin.
