Best Answer

mold spores are everywhere. getting away from them is almost impossible, because of this, all food mold means is that those spores have landed on a piece of food and conditions have been right for that particular type of mold to grow. There are many types of mold, some of which are added to food intentionally, such as the mold that makes blue cheese blue or green. these molds are added for the sake of changing foods flavor. Cheese molds are generally edible and mold on rye is the basis for penicillin, however not all molds are edible or appetising.
