Why You Shouldn’t Try To Salvage Jam That Has Mold In It

You may be tempted to simply scoop the mold out and proceed as if nothing ever happened, or you might even ponder what will actually happen if you ingest a few spores. However, when it comes to jams, jellies, and preserves, even a small bit of mold usually means that it’s best to throw away the whole jar.
