So we could buy some C&D, age it, discover mold several years later, and have it replaced with fresh tins that may or may not contain mold themselves. Sounds like a reason to buy other brands if you ask me.

The top three cakes were great, but the bottom cake was really moldy.
The interesting thing is, if you had not removed them all from the tin, but instead just smoked your way down to the bottom layer...well, might have been bad if those top layers are actually contaminated too.

@gorillaFly, it looks like you're trying to scam C&D by dipping that cake in ranch dressing

Yo gor - even if you're not living out in Chester County's mushroom country, there's no question your air is full of various mold spores, germs, fungi and, these springy days, pollen. That's why blenders spray antifungal compounds like calcium propionate on their stuff.

Do you think kombucha might be a better hobby for you? It sounds like you would have some real luck growing kombucha

Note, I am outside with gloves on.
Hey, I pressed some tobacco using a fruit press. I have pictures, but should I post that on another post, or do you think I should just post it here?

I'd say this qualifies you to be dubbed the forum Mold King.
Agreed. That's by far the worst mold I've ever seen on tinned tobacco. It looks like it's going to start sprouting mushrooms out of it. 8O

Mmmmmm... S’mores! I want some!
I actually had some very similar looking mold on a GH&Co twist one time. Looked like foam. Very bleached white and fluffy. Never seen another outbreak like it until now.

For the same person to have 2 like this within a week is not a good sign. I hope it's an aberration.
