What happens if you eat a moldy reese candy bar?

* Mold is a fungus: Mold can produce toxins (mycotoxins) that can be harmful to your health.

* You can't always see it: While you might see visible mold on the surface, there could be unseen mold growing beneath.

* Potential for illness: Eating moldy food can lead to various symptoms like stomach upset, vomiting, diarrhea, or even more serious reactions depending on the type of mold and your sensitivity.

Instead of risking your health, it's best to:

* Throw away any moldy food immediately.

* Clean the area where the moldy food was stored.

* Check your other food for mold.

Remember, even if it just "looks a little moldy," it's best to err on the side of caution. Your health is more important than a candy bar.
