I ate a deli sandwich with a really big green black mold the size of a half dollar on it At the time I realized it was there I had taken a small bite of the visible mold should I call the hospital?
Don't worry, its antibiotics. you will be fine. Actually, the mold is Not good to eat. It is a common misconception that's because the antibiotic Penicillin is derived from the mold Penicillin, that it is the same thing. This is NOT true. Penicillin is a dangerous mold in large amounts and even in small amounts for sensitive people. It can colonize the body in some people. Not likely, but still possible. Aspergillus is another mold that can grow in the human body, particularly the lungs and sinuses. Do some research on Penicillin. Do not mistake it for the antibiotic. Don't panic either, because a lot of people accidentally eat this common mold as it gets on spoiled food. If you feel at all sick, contact a doctor. Educate yourself. Also, many naturalists and doctors who know something about natural supplements can recommend herbs and products that are unfriendly to mold and yeast (like Candida) that are also safe for humans (of course research all supplements and consult health care practitioner before trying anything).
What is the most famous antibiotic?
Some of the commonly prescribed antibiotics include: * Penicillins are the cheapest, safest, and most effective antibacterial treatments available (although patients can occasionally develop an allergic reaction to them). Penicillin G and V remain the drugs of choice for treating many bacterial infections. (Penicillin V is not destroyed by stomach acid, so it is a better drug for oral prescriptions.) Methicillin was the first penicillin to have activity against staphylococcus that were resistant to penicillin G. * Ampicillin and amoxycillin have a wider application than earlier penicillins, being effective against Escherichia coli (urinary tract infections), Haemophilus influenzae (ear infections and meningitis) and Salmonella typhi (responsible for typhoid fever). * Carbenicillin was the first penicillin synthesized to possess useful activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (surface bacteria causing hospital infections). * The injectable forms of this drug are generally broad-spectrum, bactericidal agents that are restricted to hospital use for the treatment of serious infections. * Tetracyclines are broad-spectrum antibiotics that have been used to treat a wide range of infections. They can be taken orally, and prevent regrowth of bacteria. They are used in the treatment of gonorrhea, and in urinary tract infections (Escherichia coli). They can cause teeth stains in children, so they are not usually prescribed for patients under 12 years of age. * Notably Erythromycin, a very safe and effective antibiotic used for respiratory tract infections caused by streptococci or mycoplama. It is also used for patients allergic to penicillin. It can penetrate human cells and is used to treat "Legionnaires' disease", a serious type of pneumonia. (see related link)Cipofloxacine, Cephradine, Amoxiciline and Augmentine are more common.

What is the French name for cheese chef?
Dear Heaven, what a question. There are between 350 and 400 different cheeses produced in France, so the answer is 'every sort'. Hard, crumbly cheeses like Wensleydale or Lancashire are not common, though still available and, presumably, enjoyed. There are many soft cheeses (Camembert, Brie, etc.) and many semi-soft; hundreds of blues, and cheeses made of goat's and ewe's milk. The variety is endless and fascinating. In a formal meal, incidentally, cheese is eaten before dessert, while the red wine is still on the table, usually with a little dressed salad to follow the main course and clease the palate before the cheese board is brought out.
