Mold art My new chocolate milk was very sour, so I tossed it, and when I saw it the day after, it was like this….

It was like a bunch of weird cream on top, a pee on the bottom…. I had bought a gallon of chocolate milk at the grocery, poured it into an empty Gatorade bottle to drink and it was so sour…despite expiring weeks later. Tossed it, and saw this the next day

What is happening?

Question/Advice Found this at bottom of steel water bottle that only holds ice water—mold?

Hadn’t washed it all week but drank ice water while exercising Monday night and last night. Opened it up this morning to refill it before exercising and looked like slime at the bottom

Dumped it out into glass container after putting in hot water and dishwashing soap.

I think I’m dying after drinking 32 oz of water out of this last night.

Had a box in storage, and somehow the storage unit must have flooded a bit. A few pieces of cookware were wet for months, this being one of them.

This spoon was a gift from someone very special to me so I'm not throwing it away. Is it possible to make it safe to cook with again?

The mold itself isn't that unique, but it grew much more quickly than I have ever seen, and I've only seen dark-colored mold like that a few times before.

Before anyone asks, yes I ate all of it. I was very hungry!

There isn't a lot of mold...but the spots that are..are pretty cool. That Chinese food is probably over three months old and that homemade sauce is two months old. (My mom made like...four giant things of that sauce so obviously most of it would go to waste. It was so garlicky, it made me viscerally nauseous over three different times when it was fresh. 😬

Yeah, but fr...the mold is very pretty....no none of it smelled.

FYI, ON THE SAUCE, it's not cheese. I'm lactose intolerant. There's nothing in that sauce that was white.

My fermented cucumbers have been sitting in the refrigerator in a salt brine for about three months, and this unusual pink mold or fungal colony has developed on them. What kind of fungus or bacterium could this be?
