what is mould?

"Mould is a type of fungus that grows on plants and fibers and is most often associated with damp, musty locations such as bathrooms, basements and attics. Mold travels through the air as tiny spores which like to make their home in wet areas, where they will breed. If mold is spotted, it's best to nip it in the bud immediately lest it spread to other areas. It's also a good indication of a moisture problem, which should be dealt with as soon as possible."

ultured molds are used in the production of foods, including:

• cheese (Penicillium spp.)
• tempeh (Rhizopus oligosporus)
• oncom (Neurospora sitophila)
• Quorn (Fusarium venenatum)
• bread
• sausages^[3]
• soy sauce

eeek, looking at these pictures of mould kind of make me regret doing this experiment, but i've already got my baby food so i shall start soon. :)
