Now I have it! Was going to make a hot turkey sandwich. Pulled out half a
loaf of honey white bread dated 10/17. Pried of two slices and was going to
nuke them when I noticed a speck on the corner of the crust. Sure enough,
it was a green speck. Looked further and found another speck on another
loaf. And out it went!

Now I can't remember the story of this bread. I did buy it either at Whole
Foods or Central Market as those are the only places I have been that sell
this bread. And I only buy this bread if I want to make a sandwich because
other than that, I don't eat it. And nobody else eats it. I do remember
tucking it away with the intent to make stuffing out of it but then I didn't
make the stuffing.

There is the possibility that the bread was moldy when I put it in there but
I just didn't notice it.

Could be. Have you checked the temperature of your freezer? Maybe
that could have something to do with it.

No. Cheryl had the same problem a while back.

There's a thermometer in there. I did have the door open for a little while
the other day to rearrange and clean out.

I freeze homemade bread all the time. Never had this problem. But maybe I
don't look at the slices as carefully as you do. Anyway, I've survived.

next time this happens, send a sample to the lab - you may have discovered
a new strain of mold that grows in freezing temperatures - and as the
discoverer you should have naming rights

Bread CANNOT mold in the freezer. You bought moldy bread...new glasses are in order. Julie is to blame for the problem. Julie is the problem. Your diary entry will not affect this group...so give yourself a good kick and check your bread before purchase and before storage of same. There is no charge for this advice...have a nice day.

Julie doesn't freeze bread. She probably put it in her bread box.

I did freeze this with the intent to make it into stuffing. But that never
happened.

Could be useful in terraforming Mars prior
to colonization. And we could honor Julie
by sending her there.

Relatively speaking the temperature of the home freezer is quite
warm... some fungi thrive at that temperature.

However people who have mold growing in their fridge/freezer are very
likely slobs.

I recall that the Bove has complained in the past about moldy bread.
Now it's in her freezer???? I don't think I have ever bought a loaf of
bread that was moldy. I have on maybe to occasions had bread develop
mold. That is why I keep it in the fridge if it will be used up within a
day or two, or into the freezer if it is going to last longer than that.
It says a lot about her if mold is a frequent problem in her kitchen.
Most other people learn.

Since I only ever use bread for an occasional piece of toast as a rule, it
lasts for a very long time in the fridge.

I buy a lot of "expired" bread/rolls for feeding critters that I keep
in the fridge, not once have I seen any mold. In fact I often eat
some of that expired bread/rolls myself, nothing wrong with it...
often has been in my fridge for over a month and no mold. I think if
someone buys *fresh* bread and keeps it in their fridge/freezer and it
gets moldy within a month then that's because they handled it with
their filthy unwashed mitts plus their abode has to be a virtual
landfill. A lot of people regularly dust/vacuum their guest
entertaining areas, but haven't a clue about safe food handling. I've
visited many homes that would never pass a military inspection, their
kitchens are disgusting but they don't see it, they haven't a clue.
Don't even get me started on their bathrooms, I've seen some horrors.
Do yoose know there are a lot of people who plop their disgusting
unwashed bodies into the same unlaundered bedding for over a year. The
worst slobs are those with strange dietary habits... moldy bread your
ass, literally... Bove!

The bread was sealed in a bag and there was no mold anywhere else.

This is not your standard bread. It is made at a local bakery and has no
preservatives. I rarely bought the white and never will again. As I
recall, I tried to make a sandwich with that loaf and the bread just turned
to mush. It may have not been baked for long enough because it was overly
moist.

The time it happened to me, the mold was visible through the plastic
bag. It was not only on the bread, but on the inside of the plastic bag.
I've since discovered where I put it isn't the coldest part of the
freezer. Now when I freeze bread, I know where to put it. Plus, at the
time, my freezer was a little too full.

I seriously doubt the coldest and warmest parts of your freezer vary
by more than 5ºF, unless your appliance is Circa 1948 or older, the
door gasket is kaput, or if overfilled and something is preventing the
door from fully closing. In my experience bread mold doesn't form at
modern freezer temperatures (I've had bread in my freezer for over a
year with no mold), more likely your bread was already moldy when you
placed it in your freezer. I've kept expired bread in my fridge for
two months without it molding. Most likely your bread was already
moldy when you brought it home or it was left out on the counter for a
week or more before you decided to freeze it.
