Not quiet
98.99% of mold gives humans something between mild discomfort and death, 1% tastes good with butter. The the remaining 0.01% is estimated to have saved over half a billion lives.
Or when growing in cheese.
Cheese also tastes good with butter.
No one:
Everyone: adds a pointless “No one:” above perfectly valid memes
And on top of that, a pointless Twitter comment.
I swear, every meme nowadays is three levels of reaction deep.
But how will i drive engagement to my shitter page if i don't slap my username on every meme I find?
POV: Someone added a useless "no one" to their meme
POV: you're the other person watching someone else do the action being described
Most molds are about as closely related to mushrooms as flatworms are to humans
And humans are more closely related to mushrooms than plants!
"why is that we eat the fruit and not the tree?"

Why apple but not apple seed

Some moulds are totally fine, see blue cheese. Some mycelium schlongs are dangerous, see death caps.
"Mycelium schlong"
Linguistic creativity at its best.
See also other soft cheeses like brie
You can also put mold on meat. Lot trickier, but the famous Hungarian salami Téliszalámi (Winter Salami) is done like that.
"Why do we eat the fungi that taste good and not the ones that give you explosive diarrhea?"
Blue cheese would like a word.
Whoa there... We eat mold too if they're the right type and on the right things.
*Blu cheese has entered the chat*
This bacterium gives me the sniffles. This other bacterium liquefies and eats my muscles. But if I don't have enough of this other bacterium in me, I get violent explosive shits??
The Roquefort (French blue cheese) is made from the mold that grows on rye bread.
So even the moldy bread, in the right condition, can become a delicacy.
lactobacillus is everywhere. Truly the king of kings.
Yo, thank you to yogurt, sourdough, and various fermented beverages. Bless.
On typing this out, I'm suddenly concerned about this being offensive or blatantly false. I never applied critical thought to the story before, as I'm pretty sure I was told it as a relatively young, and more relevantly gullible, man.
Is it true that this mold played a role in the "witches ride broomsticks" stereotype?
edit: Removed redundant word.
It sounds like a few different things got mashed together there. Ergot is a hallucinogenic fungus that grows on rye, and is speculated to be the cause of some of the witch panics. It's not the same fungus found in Roquefort, but it is what they use to make LSD.
Witches flying is hypothesized to be entheogen use, since a common side effect is feelings of floating, flying, or otherwise 'being high'.
The fungus you're thinking of is likely ergot, because it shows up in pretty large volume in batches of rye.
In processing, it ends up as a dark purple/black dried up mass that assumes kinda a crescent shape. Mills will run a batch of rye through a color-sorter - a bunch of times consecutively - to reduce the amount of ergot in the batch before milling.
You can technically refine it into LSD, but if you screw up, you can kill people. (Morning Glories are the preferred method).
The number of 55-gallon drums of ergot I've disposed of, though... It's difficult not to identify with Walter White and wonder... "what if?"
Humans: 🤮
Human genitalia: 🍆💨👃🤤
Cheese and yoghurt enter the chat.
laughs in alcohol
the difference between eating mushrooms and eating mold is the difference between oral sex and vore
basically the same thing with men
Not a big fan of male genitalia tbh

.....is bread mold harmful to eat?
EDIT: Still have not gotten a wholly confirmed answer lol
Fuck, I remember Gumby. What happened to that guy?
For a costume event, I got a Gumby outfit and put a gladiator shirt over it. I don't think anybody got it.
Depends on the species of mold, but enough of them are toxic that the general advice is to avoid all moldy bread.
Bread mold is not one universal thing, while certain molds may be more common, without doing involved identification you will not be able to determine the species and therefore safety of bread mold. Even if the majority of the time it is a safe species, you should not be knowingly risking it.
SEB is a 32 year old woman, presenting to the emergency room...
Listen: I've never gotten sick from eating slightly moldy bread. Ever.
Scallions, however, sent me to the emergency room shitting blood (turns out it was an allergy or intolerance or some nonsense).
I ain't one of those "Taco Bell gives me explosive diarrhea" nerds. That's weak. 😤
If the french eat frogs that's fine, but when the south Americans do it everyone loses their minds.

I prefer calling it flowers than genitallia

I’ve been sucking off genitalia this whole time?!

Would mould live on live wood?

What’s mould? I know what mold is.

haha the joke is that we all have to live under the thumb of imperial domination and its demands for conformity while you have the privilege of being from the metropole
