I just had an interesting/scary thought as I was cutting off some mould (mold for the US readers ?) on a piece of cheese I wanted for lunch...

Last week I read through Father's instructions on leopracy and what to do when there is mould in a house or clothing. The different tests that the priest has to do, etc.

Now, I am sitting here with a slice of cheese that I have just cut the mould off of. I know there would be those for and against the idea of eathing anything that had mould on as the mould only spawn once the mycelium has fully matured inside its growth medium (my cheese in this instance). BUT I have been raised not to waste food... ?

What I am wondering about is whether there is anything in Scripture that warns us against eating mould that is on food? Brie and many other cheeses are covered in mould.

If you have a thought or Scripture on this then please share it below. If you have a good Article that you can publish then please publish it under the Articles so that others may also learn.
