The British Press Wants You To Eat Moldy Food (Spelled “Mouldy”)

I’m a Food Safety Expert and Here’s What You CAN Still Eat Even If It’s Mouldy
UK Daily Mail | 12/10/2023 | Rebecca Whittaker

Oppo’s short list: Nothing.

-Avoid mouldy grains, nuts and apples

-Avoid mouldy soft cheese, berries and bread

-But some cheeses ARE safe. One of the only foods you can eat even if it is mouldy is hard cheese.

‘Hard, dense foods like hard cheeses or firm fruits and vegetables are more resistant to penetration by the mould so the mould could be cut out and the food consumed’, he added.

To be safe Dr Fuchs recommends people cut off about 2.5cm of food around and below the mouldy area.

However, when mould is specifically used to make a product, such as blue cheese, it is safe to eat.

Well, duh.

But What About All the Adorable Memes?

Long-Suspected Link Between Cats and Schizophrenia Could Be Real: New Study
NY Post | 12-8-23 | Marc Lallanilla

New medical research suggests that owning a cat could double the risk of developing schizophrenia.

To reach that conclusion, scientists in Australia analyzed 17 studies published over the last 44 years from 11 different countries, including the US and the UK.

“Our findings support an association between cat exposure and an increased risk of broadly defined schizophrenia-related disorders,” the authors wrote in their analysis, published in the journal Schizophrenia Bulletin.

“We found that individuals exposed to cats had approximately twice the odds of developing schizophrenia,” wrote the research team from the Queensland Centre for Mental Health Research.

Schizophrenia is a complex mental illness that often runs in families, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine.

Wait — the researchers didn’t do their own research? They only analyzed 17 studies done by others?

There’s a magazine called “Schizophrenia Bulletin”?

No comment. Dogs rule.
