Molds on the surface of foods can frequently be removed safely, and white mold is probably the most benign mold which affects food. It can usually be removed from cheese or preserved meat and the remainder eaten without ill effects or bad taste. However, its presence can be a warning that other more dangerous bacterial forms of spoilage may have got a foothold, so caution is advised. White mold can be desirable on specific kinds of salame, for example french "saucisson" is meant to have a white moldy casing. It is due to a specific kind of fungal or bacterial growth, generally of a penicillium genus, that has the advantage of protecting the outer layer against other kinds of contamination as well as imparting an extra layer of flavour. This kind of mold is to be expected in salames or other sausage made with natural casings (i.e. animal intestines), any kind of white mold on the outside of a factory made, plastic-cased salame should be considered as unidentified bacterial growth and discarded immediately.

Is white stilton with apricots safe during pregnancy?
Yes, white stilton with apricots is safe during pregnancy! You will read to avoid stilton cheese. This statement, in my opinion, is too general because there is a big difference between blue stilton and white stilton. First of all, all stilton cheese comes from pasteurized milk. The difference between blue and white stilton can be seen when it is manufactured and matured. Very early in the making of blue stilton, blue mold is added to the mixture. White stilton DOES NOT have blue mold added to the mixture. The feeling is that mold ripened cheeses are typically softer and offer a good environment for harmful bacteria like listeria to grow. So, because white stilton is pasteurized and is not mold ripened, it is safe in pregnancy!
