Default mold

Cleaning out my fridge, I sometimes find green
moldy unnamed stuff, from the Paleozoic era.

So I wonder, let's say bread has a bit of mold,
not too much, maybe you pull it out in the dark,
you're drunk, you don't even notice it, Is it toxic?

Keep your bread in the freezer. Most real bread will let you pull off
a couple slices at a time.

If bread is damp in the fridge I let it breathe. It seems to last forever.
I have heard a fellow loosing his face from bread mold in his sinuses.
Never ate a lot, but never got sick. I guess opened bread could get exposed
to more toxic versions.

It seems almost all food is carcinogenic. Wheatena is essentially banned
in California because it has the same carcinogen as most baked wheat
products. Even broccoli and other brassicas. considered by many to be an
anti-cancer food, has carcinogens in it.

Wheatena isn't banned -- they just have to disclose the amount of
carcinogen/neurotoxin it contains.

I used the word "essentially." How many bread or melba toast purveyors
tell you how much carcinogen is in their product. If you were selling a
product that has been on the market for well over a hundred years, how
would you like to print a "cigarette label" on your product. I am
willing to sign a health disclaimer when I buy Wheatena for my
consumption even though it does contain a carcinogen even if the
producer will not admit it.

For now, it seems that the manufacturer is not whipping Wheatena into
California, and a few other states.

Actually Melba toast's levels are relatively modest. Ry-Krisp is the
one to avoid.

Wheatena is well up there, though. Other people pledged to cut down
the amount of acrylamide in their products, and many are at
undetectable levels. It has 5 to 30 times the amount of other cereals.

The people voted for notification. You can't go anywhere without
seeing a Prop. 65 warning though, so I don't know what Wheatena's
problem is. Let their Calif distributor slap stickers on, if they
don't want to let other states know.
