So some cheeses seem to be toxic for you if you eat them when they have mold on them, while others are mainly being consumed when they get moldy. Why is it so that some types of cheese will make you sick, while you can eat others without a problem?
In: Chemistry
It depends on the type of mold. Different molds produce different waste products. The waste produced by the mold in blue cheese isn’t toxic to us. The waste created by other types of mold are toxic to us.
