Question

Is it dangerous to eat strawberries that have just a little bit of fuzzy stuff growing on them?

Answer 1

Yes it is and can actually kill you. why would you be eating something with mold on it or rotten

Answer 2

It's OK as long as you smoke some pot first...

Answer 3

fuzzy stuff ha ha. yeah its not a very good idea, even the slightest bit could throw you down ill

Answer 4

Yes, anything that has anything growing on it, that isn't supposed to be there, is very dangerous to eat!  Some may tell you to simply cut the effected part away, but fungus is microscopic and can easily be airborne.  Please just throw it out!

Answer 5

i wouldn't eat it, if u asked me!

Answer 6

I don't think it will kill you.A lot of nasty fuzzy fruit ends up in the juices sold at the grocery store!

Answer 7

that ''fuzzy stuff" is mold

if i were you i wouldnt eat it  

you can get a stomach ache

Answer 8

Just wipe it off with your hands.

Strawberries( even when you don't see the fuzz) average about 25% mold.

It's a moldy fruit.

And yes, it's safe.

Common with many other berries( especially raspberry's).

When you eat them your eating mold either way.

Same with cheese.

I left out the most important thing.

If you are suseptable to allergies, these kind of berries are not for you.

That's why so many people are allergic to Strawberries

( because of the mold factor)

Do not eat green molded berries.

Answer 9

When in doubt, throw it out. Eating moldy fruit is a great way to make yourself spend the next couple days on the toilet/throwing up.

Answer 10

the fuzz is called a beard , and usually occurs due to improper  refrigeration during transport and distributor handling. as far as i know , it won't hurt you.

Answer 11

no. they will be fine to eat until they start to go in on themselves. some people eat apples that are part decayed.
