Okay, I don't think I am actually going to die.

I just ate 1/2 of pita, and upon looking at the second 1/2, discovered it is moldy.

I searched online a little, but just wondering what (if any) gastrointestinal side effects I may be seeing and for how long.

Most of all, yuck.

    Think of it this way, you just received a very cheap dose of penicillin...in a manner of speaking. =)

    The mold that grows on bread is used to make penicillin. You didn't even eat the moldy part. You should be fine. Just wondering though... didn't it taste a little funny?

    You're definitely going to die. Maybe not for 75 years, but death is a certainty.

    Only if it had fructose syrup on it. That stuff is poison. I know because i saw it on the internet.

    Sorry, you are done for.

    No, actually, I ate a whole piece of green bread without realizing it and had no effects at all. I wouldn't expect it to harm you.

    did you pick the mold off the second half of your pita so that you could finish it?

    I did that last week... with a piece of garlic naan. I'm still here.

    Garlic mold does NOT taste good, btw. Save yourself that experience.
