Can we eat this cheese fuzz?

Can we eat this cheese fuzz?

Week old cut cheese. Camembert, blue Stilton and cheddar. We know that the blue veins in Stilton is just penicillin, is it still safe to eat once it grows? We know camembert is covered in a cultured mould, is it still safe to eat one that goes fuzzier?

I just wanna eat my leftover girl dinner please

Found this at the bottom of a maple syrup bottle?

I had some a week ago and I was fine, but I just poured the last of it on my waffles and this thing came out. None of it is on my food, and I’m really hungry with little food options around the house, but if it’s gonna make me sick I’ll throw them away. Thanks!

ordered this poke bowl, but the raw tuna smelled and tasted a little fishy

hello, i’m asking and i’m concerned because due to health issues i need to be especially careful about food. today i got this poke bowl from a place that makes incredibly delicious bowls, and this time it was delicious too, aside from the tuna.

salmon was totally fine, but the tuna was slightly more fishy than usual. i did not swallow it and spit it out, discarded all the rest of the tuna as well just to be safe.

however, i still ate around it, and i’m wondering if the food all around is safe even if it touched the suspicious tuna?

i would also love to know opinions about whether or not the tuna looks harmful or sounds harmful in general. thank you so much

Put frozen grilled chicken breasts in the fridge accidentally - packaging says keep frozen - can I still eat these?

I’m home sick so I ordered a few groceries via delivery app today. I didn’t realize these came frozen (and somehow I didn’t notice when they arrived, when I put them in my fridge). I normally buy the ones in the refrigerated section. This evening I went to grab a few to toss into a salad and I noticed one felt half frozen. I thought maybe my fridge was acting up but no, these came frozen.. and have labelling suggesting they need to stay frozen until right before being “cooked”. They are already fully cooked before being frozen. But they have now thawed.

Do I need to toss these or can I keep them in the fridge for a few days?

And if so, can I eat them cold straight from the fridge as I intended, or do they need to be heated and reach 165 like the packaging suggests?

Yoo-hoo mold?

Is this mold in my yoo-hoo? I’ve never drank one before. I was at a liquor store and my friends were buying beer and I chickened out because I’m a pussy piece of shit and I couldn’t do it so they left me and I’m sitting in a restaurant drinking this alone like the chud I am. I’m thinking it could just be powder? It doesn’t smell bad at all.

Green spot on ham

I only found this basically on the last bite, I had already eaten a slice of this ham but didn’t check it! My dad ate the other 3 slices before I noticed this.

It goes out of date on the 11th and was unopened.

how fucked am I?

Flour or mould?

Bought reduced a few hours ago, use by date is today. Originally thought mould because of the pattern but I poked it with my nail a bit and it does act like dough.
Thank you!
Edit: I mean the white patch on the dumpling on the top/right. Should have clarified- sorry!

Can tomatoes still be used in cooking when it goes bad and grows whitish molds on it?

So this is a bit silly, when a tomato goes bad and a white ish mold groes on it, my parrents takes out the bad part, and put it in trash. While the other good part, as per what my mom said, she sniff the good part, if there wasnt a bad smell, then she use it in cooking...

And we are just on the verge of a great dispute, as im trying to convince them that the whole tomatoe should be thrown away... but they wouldnt listen...

So i have desided to ask here, and see if what they are doing could lead to some health issues or not? As i know some kinds of fungus can lead to cancer, or could lead to other health issues...

So what do you guys think?

Red Gatorade - in car for about a year unopened

Found this while cleaning. It’s been under passengers seat for probably a year. Date says November 2025.
I don’t see anything floating in it but I haven’t cracked it open yet.

Safe to consume?

*UPDATE - threw it out, my balls can’t handle any more microplastics right now

Blueberries..I don’t usually eat them. Are they supposed to have that orange looking grown in the core?

I gave my son some blueberries and he ate most of what I gave him, but he said they were making his stomach feel weird and that there was “some weird orange stuff in the middle of them”. I don’t have experience with eating them let alone seeing what the inside looks like. Is this normal for them to look like that?

Ham, cooler, 10 hours??

Hi all, I am curious about this. I had ham (already opened deli ham) in a cooler with some ice packs, other fridge items and some frozen veggies in a cooler for about 10 hours on a roadtrip. On one hand, it's a really long time and I didn't know (until now) that I could/should validate temps. On the other hand, the gel-ice packs were not fully melted when I unpacked the cooler. What's the opinion or if you have any similar experiences? I ate some and then realized oh maybe I shouldn't have. I'm so tired and don't want to be up worrying :/

Blue discoloration on beef fat/membrane, does anyone know what this is?

Hi everyone,

I bought this piece of beef from a local market today, and I noticed that part of the white membrane/fat has a bright blue discoloration. The rest of the meat looks and smells normal.
Has anyone seen this before? Could it be inspection dye, a processing mark, or something else? I was also wondering if there’s any chance it could be contamination (I even thought about rodent poison, although that seems unlikely).
Would you consider this safe to eat, or would you return it?
I’ve attached a photo. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

White peas?

Hi there, found some peas with white skin in this pre-made commercial cantonese rice. Not expired, always kept in the fridge. I was wondering if these peas were safe to eat? Would love some help, thank you!
