Mold is a quality issue not a health issue. You'll be fine unless it contains spores.

Doesn't mold, by definition, contain spores?

Molds produce spores to reproduce. Sorry for miswording my original post as I got distracted. Most molds will not make you sick if you eat them. Molds on foods generally are considered a quality attribute since they are not of major concern for illness. Sure, some molds are toxic, but a majority of them are not. For some people, it is fairly common to eat molds. Take many different kinds of cheeses for example.

My laziness paid off this time... I think I'm fine...

Took a shower and ate some seedless watermelons. And made a "date" with wife to have some all you can eat Mongolian BBQs later.

Do you have a computer in the bathroom?

No, but I frequently use my wireless laptop when I have to go #2 and work at the same time.

I just ate another, this time I took the time to remove the 4-5 moldy spots with a spoon since I'm in the kitchen already.

Hey, If I get sick, I can get off work early!

It's delicious. Besides, I paid $16 for it. It's hard to get a Vietnamese-French style cake like this. It is not as sweet as American cakes with sugar icing.

I'm going to try to finish this today before it is covered completely with mold.
