How fast does mold grow on bread?

Answer 1

Depends. If you leave it out in a dry environment it can take several weeks because it is difficult for spores to germinate in that condition. If placed in a place like in a sealed plastic bag, the moisture will gather up in there and the mould spores will germinate fast, in 1 maybe 2 days.

If you want to do this experiment, look up the question "How do you mold fruit?" and I have answered that there.

Hope this answers your question!

Answer 2

How fast a loaf of bread will go moldy depends on several different things including:

• the age of the bread since it was baked
• the quality of the flour and other ingredients
• whether or not any mold inhibitors were added before it was baked i.e. food preservative chemicals which help to extend the period of freshness
• the conditions in which the bread was stored from when it was baked until it was purchased
• the conditions in which the bread was being stored after purchase.
