Best Answer

Mold needs a few factors to grow

1) high humidity

2) warm temperatures

3) food source

the orange provide the food source and if you sealed your sandwich bag it would provide a little "greenhouse" for your mold by trapping water vapour (higher humidity) and keeping the temperature warm (if theres light shining on it)
