Personally, there is no way anyone could convince me to eat something that looks this moldy and nasty. I had more than my share of debilitating gut issues back in 2023 and I have zero interest in risking anything like that again.

Not. Dry. Enough.

That will kill you. Not dry aged at all. Rotted age.

So, there's this fermented meat, skerpikjøt. It's made from unsalted, unseasoned, un-cooled meat air dried for 9-ish months. It's *supposed* to get moldy and when finished has a flavor that's been described as “a pungency somewhere between Parmesan cheese and death.” I think even the most foolhardy skerpikjøt fan would take one look at this and say "Naw that's rotten."

Dry aged as in "left on the driest spot on his basement floor"...

If you save the picture and put it on your lunch in the fridge at work, no one will steal it.
They might toss it though

White/grey mould is normal and expected after that length of time. It actually helps prevent bacteria. Obviously, you should be trimming it off. But green, black or fuzzy is bad. Throw it out.

White mold is fine if, and only if, you know for certain that it's an edible mold species. E.g., on brie and camembert. In that case you don't even have to trim it off. But there are also white molds that produce harmful allergens and in some cases mycotoxins. Trimming these molds off isn't safe either since their mycelial hyphae have already buried deep into the food by the time you see their fruiting bodies on the surface. Never eat moldy food unless you're 100% certain the mold is edible

That phrase is a great way to get me to start an argument. I'm working on it.

That’s moldy pork ribs and you know it. We all know moldy pork ribs when we see them. Don’t feed me no jibba jabba about dry beef

It's perfect for a meat terrarium.
ragingzealot
That's a ribeye, not country ham, there shouldn't be anything growing on it.

100% Natural, absolutely no antibiotics used. In fact, it's so full of probiotics you can smell it!

I mean, if that mold is harmless and edible (pretty big if) it's likely a Penicillium species, which does produce antibiotics.

Just pick off the mold. We don't waste food here. There are kids starving in Africa.
