Maybe he keeled over to vom

There are some highly toxic species of mold, although they are much rarer than ordinary mold.

Cheese is weird because someone had to be like, well let's go ahead and store some milk in the stomach of an animal, but also they forgot about it under a chair for 3 months and then, upon finding it, thought, "well let's have a go anyway, despite it changing forms." And then eventually someone realized if you stuck it in certain caves it became delicious. So much human history just in that one food product there.

There's a reindeer cheese that is considered a delicacy that has actual maggots in it. Another orange cheese that has fucking mites! I don't mind my stinky cheese, but I'm not eating anything moving.

You beautiful bastard that was wonderful!

Only if you saw him spore-adically

Anytime I hear this argument from someone, I tell them to go look up the term, "survivorship bias".

I mean we figured this shit out during WWI, FFS. People need to keep up.

There are more types of fungus than any other type of life. Lots of them are mostly harmless. Some of them are a little toxic. Some others are very much toxic. Some others will cause allergies, fungal infection, rare metabolic disorders or all together.

It's the worst kind of lottery, most likely nothing will happen but if something happens it will be pretty uncomfortable. IT IS NOT WORTH IT!

300 migs per kig? Shit, I'll roll the dice on that old manchego slice, I'm a fat cunt.

not all moulds though, it should be noted

I ate moldy bread by accident once. Didn't see the side with the mold until after I made the sandwich, I was also high. That one time and tiny amount was one of the most horrible things I've put in my mouth. Spit it out immediately and had PTSD about moldy bread ever since. If I see a tiny bit forming that shit is not going near my mouth, the whole bag is gone.

Really don't understand how anyone could "eat around it" or even eat other slices in the pack. Bread is really cheap, just throw it away. Don't play Russian roulette with foods.

if you don’t need penicillin does it actually help you at all?

No, it has virtually no chance to help you, and most probably can only hurt you.

First, it kills indiscriminately. If you're not sick, what are you killing? Your own healthy gut flora. That's what.

Second, what if you are slightly ill? Guess what? It still probably won't help. Doctors don't just throw penicillin at you in random amounts. They prescribe a specific dose that has been shown to be effective. Having one untested dose of unknown quantity isn't going to help.

Third, when you're given antibiotics, you are told to take it over a number of days, and to take the entire amount, even if you feel better. They do this for several reasons, but one of the reasons is that, if you only kill some of the bacteria, but not enough of them, the remaining bacteria have a small chance to evolve to become resistant to antibiotics. By taking antibiotics without the guidance of a doctor, you have a small chance of making yourself even more ill with antibiotic-resistant bacteria. I want to emphasize that this is a very small chance, but unlikely things will happen when given enough chances.
