After I ate a piece of toast (which didn’t have mold) I noticed other slices of bread in the loaf were growing mold. What will happen to me?? I’m so scared

Really, no, this is incredibly unlikely. Remember, penicillin was discovered on mouldy bread.

Nope, nothing will happen. Your stomach acid will blast the mold, dead.....and that'll be it. We have honestly all eaten moldy bread more often than we know it ! I saw a quote a few years ago about this....along the lines of......'the worst thing about eating moldy bread, is that you know you ate moldy bread'. LOL

In ye olden days, if we saw mold on bread and cheese, we cut that bit off and carried on regardless.

Errrm, I've just re-read your post....... you ate a piece of toast that had NO mold on it !!! Even if a teency weency bit of mold was on your bread, you toasted it anyway, and even if you hadn't there would have been no issue. Now......

Repeat all the things you've been told here to yourself. Reassure yourself.

Absolutely nothing. I've eaten mold accidentally several times and never even had a stomach ache from it.

Nothing. I read an article once about how you can grow your own penicillin at home with moldy bread! (For science experiment purposes, not treatment, but that's how they make it.) You will be fine.

Seems like scaredpt must have survived the whole 'will I die from mouldy bread' fear....as despite no update here has been posting on another thread with a different fear.
