Molds On Food: Are They Dangerous?
http://www.fsis.usda.gov/factsheets/molds_on_food/
It says if any mold is visible on bread, discard it because porous foods can be contaminated below the surface. Molds can cause allergic reactions or respiratory problems, and some molds produce poisonous mycotoxins.

∙ 12y agoYes. I cut off the moldy part and ate the rest not knowing mold has roots deep inside the bread where you can't even see -- I had a really bad stomach ache for a couple of hours. If you see even smallest amounts of mold on anything -- THROW IT AWAY.

Why is bread mold harmful to us?
Bread mold is harmful because of the mycotoxins that may be present in the spores of the mold. This type of mold when processed can also be helpful as it is used to produce penicillin.
Does mold grow faster on store bought bread or homemade bread?
The purpose of the experiment was to discover how the type of bread affected the amount of mold. The bread was cut and placed in separate Ziploc bags. The bread was measured for mold every day and was recorded on the data sheet. My hypothesis was "If the white, wheat, whole wheat, sourdough, and sweet bread were placed in Ziploc bags and left for 20 days, then the sweet bread would grow the most mold because the sweet bread had the most energy (sugar) that the mold can use to grow." Whole Wheat bread was the type of bread that grew the most mold, while white, wheat, and sourdough did not grow any mold. When Whole Wheat bread was left to mold, it grew an average of 60.91 square cm. When sweet bread was left to mold, it grew an average of .58 square cm. of mold. When white, wheat, and sourdough were left to mold, they grew no visible mold.

What is red mold and is it harmful?
I did an experiment, i am still working on it, but I started an experiment testing which kind of bread would start to process mold faster, white bread with no water on it, or white bread with a lot of water on it. What I did was I took 2 pieces of bread, put 1 in a bag, and put a tablespoon of water on the other, then put that one in another bag. On the 10th day, the bread with water on it grew normal, green mold, after the 13th day, I realized that there were a type of red mold on the bread. Red mold is a type of any mold, and given a different color, like, blue mold, green mold, or brown mold, exept, only created by adding alot of water to a kind of food that obsorbs it, in about 10-15 days, you find red mold. Red mold is not harmful, unless you eat it. Red mold could rub on your skin, and still not be infected, unless you were to rub the mold on a cut. When red mold is eaten with out being processed into something like cheese, the red mold will survive the stomach acid, and will cause pain in your bladder. The red mold will get caught in your bladder and will require surgery to get it out. Think of it this way, cheese is a form of mold, if you like to eat cheese, it is like you are saying you like to eat mold.
