When Supper Goes Bad

When supper goes bad what do you do?  Throw it out?  Sigh and start all over?

I was in the middle of cutting buns for supper when I noticed two somethings growing on one of the buns.  Yes, that nasty supper ruining mold was present on almost all of the buns.  Did I throw them out? Yes, but first I pinched off a chunk of the bread and got out the microscope.  Yah, I'm that kind of homeschooling mom.  Not only did I get out the microscope while I was making supper, but I also took pictures of what I was looking at.  I have to say it was well worth the effort as I had never looked at mold closely before.  It was amazing!  I can't wait to inspect other things!
This is the close picture of the white mold.
 This is the black mold. 
And this is the close up of it.
