No. If tomatoes are moldy, they cannot necessarily be salvaged by cooking. Some molds produce toxins that will not be destroyed by cooking. Since one wouldn't know which mold is growing, one should not risk using moldy tomatoes - or anything else that has unexpectedly grown some mold.

Can you get Botulism from spoiled hot dogs?

Botulism is an anaerobic bacteria - this means it can grow without air. This is why botulism can be contracted from eating canned foods that have been dented or home canned goods, such as tomatoes, that have not been prepared properly. Once exposed to air, over time, these botulin spores die. This is one reason why you should not smell a freshly opened can of food; the botulin spores can be inhaled into your lungs and cause illness. It is unlikely that you could get botulism from eating hot dogs that have not been canned and that have been exposed to the air. It is more likely you could get a gastroenteritis from eating spoiled hot dogs that may have been left out, old or improperly stored.


What are the examples of superstitious beliefs about food with its scientific explanation?

The old advisory that did not allow the consumption of pork in hot climates. This was before refrigeration, meat spoiled faster in hot climates, food poisoning was thought to come from "evil spirits," hence the superstition. It was once believed tomatoes were poisonous, this could be explained by the fact tomatoes are a member of the "nightshade" family. Nightshade is poisonous, so thinking tomatoes could kill you made a fair amount of sense. Today we know the plant is not good for us, but the fruit is edible.
